    Michael, this is all something that you can't rush. A lot is hurry up and wait. I think you are finding that out now. Foam needs at least 24 hours to cure, sometimes longer. I have had foam that I applied heavily and still hadn't cured 3 days later. Take your time. Don't rush things, your tank will look better in the end.

    You're right, it did not work out. The background looks nice but it does not quite fit correctly. Perhaps I should go with tree fern panel or something similiar.
