I know I'm way late on this but awesome job on the background, since your not using the original one do you plan on putting it in another tank? On your new one are you not doing the stack style? Anyway great job cant wait to see the other one!

the original rock wall background has hopes of going into a deeper tank. I may experiment with building my own tank for it not sure yet. The current background is in progress of being siliconed into the tank then i need to do some touch up work on it with some GS, because, well, to make a long story short, due to a mishap i had to cut it in a couple pieces because GS bowed it in. Not sure why but if i had to guess it was because i got anxious and started carving it to soon before it was completely cured and the uncured portions grabbed onto surrounding foam and pulled everything inward bowing the **** out of it all, so the corner section was cut and siliconed in, then the back portion was cut into two pieces. Only the last piece left to silicone in, then some touch up foaming to fill the voids. This new one is way way more slimmer and gives way more floor space.

The rock wall will hopefully be put to use at some point in the future, i spent too much time on it not to use it, though i'd probably sell it if someone offered me the right price =)

This is SO impressive, I can't wait to read thoroughly how you made the background when I have the time. I think I've got a new project that will take up all my free time now! So much prettier/interesting than a 2D picture taped to the back!
