  • song is teardrop by massive attack.

  • i made a background for my lizard tank but what do you use to have it in the water?

  • @1904geckos , its made of polystyrene with a few coats of wickes rapid set cement thats all...

  • want some advice from you. i have 10 " redtail catfish, 12" pacu and two 13" walking catfishes. if i make one 3d aquarium background like you wont the fish eat that cement coated polystyrene? plz do reply

  • @devil6330 i have bristlenose catfish and they are always on the wall and to be honest the cement has started to come off where they are always on it, i only applied a thin coat but it has lasted well over 12 mths so if you apply a good thick coat you should be ok for years...hope this helps..

  • so what are the rocks?how did you get them to stay

  • the background is made of polystyrene coated with rapid set cement, cost me about £15.

see all

  • amazing

    how much did u pay 4 fish

  • felt like i was watching House haha but i like the background!

  • NICE!! 5 STARS!!

  • what if you have an established tank? is it possible to build this and put one in without shocking the tank?

  • it could be better to show how u did this...

  • is that made of styrofoam? and what kind of colour can I use?

  • @devil6330 its always good to put a clear pond sealer on it aswell

  • @ste6570 did u use any sealant for this mate...i.e epoxy resin or was it o.k. with just the cement? gonna start mine this weekend. great track choice btw :)

  • @stecartmel  your ignorance towards a great track and great band is equaled by your poor spelling and sentence making abilities. The great tank part is the only sense u make

  • great tank...new 2 cichlids any chance of a list of fish u have
