Painting aquarium bottom help

[gazelle]

Hey guys,

I was planning on painting the bottom of a 10g i bought the other day. I was just wondering, how I would spraypaint the bottom but manage to have the logo there? I was going to put like a piece of the paper there but I was worrieed the spraypaint would blow it away.

Also, What should I do?
I was thinking about the Monster M thing

Thanks

Draw your design on cardboard and cut it out to make a stencil. Spray on your logo, let it dry, then spray over it in a contrasting color. This goes for painting the outside of the tank, of course. If you're painting the inside, spray the background first, then your stencil.

or you can spray / paint the logo inside the tank and outside [the other side of the glass] the solid color

If you want to use paper and don't want it to fly away, you can use a spray adhesive. Stick it on, spray your stencil then peel it off. Do this before 5 minutes and the stencil won't dry onto your tank

i would imagine spray painting inside the tank would be harmful for the fish?

With Krylon Fusion it will be fine...obviously letting it dry might help too.
