Blue Paint... Back Only Or Back And Sides?

[simonas]

Just after opinions really.
I am underway in my marine set up, all tank cleaned and now two coats of royal blue on the back of the tank but I wonder whether to do the sides as well

Obviously if I do it and don;t like it I;ve blundered but does doing the sides improve the effect of the paint or not

what are your thoughts marine keepers? lol

It Depends where the tank is situated mine is in a corner so done the back and one side

I've been considering that as mines the same. It would leave the other side asa viewing point as well. On the one painted side can you see its blue and do the fish etc look better against that background?

cheers Simon

My Whole Tank design was to have 2 viewable sides

Side View

Front View

that looks spot on Morri cheers for putting the pics up

I;m happy with the way my painting has turned out and I don;t think I will bother with backing on any tanks ever again

Looking forward to sorting the sand and marine bulb tomorrow
