looks nice, my advice would be to tint or paint the back of the tank black to make it pop a bit more, and the rock is very... straight. loosen it up a little more or something to give it a cool look to it. and i see in the front some cyno maybe? or some algae? try and take care of that before it spreads like wildfire. other then that, nice.

thanks, so yes it was my big mistake not to paint. But now after its set up it will not be easy to piant it. I need to know what paint to buy and what brush to use. Ok was thinking of a roller so I can get to the back.

I've painted over 25 tanks for people. It's easy as pie. Just tape around the boarders, and get cardboard over the top of tank. If you spray paint, it takes a bunch of light coats, but turns out nice. It you paint, get a roller and just roll on some paint. 3-5 coats. Just make sure to speed it up, get a fan blowing on it after each coat, and shine a flash light at it or do it in the sun light and make sure it's a nice thick coat so clean looking.

It's all a personal opinion on color. I have had black, blue, chrome, and navy/dark blue. Personally black looked so much cleaner. Take a look at my tank thread in my signature and you can see black background for examples. And if you go into my old old old tank pictures in my picture gallery on my profile, you can see blue, dark blue and chrome. I may still have those pics on it... Good luck
