Hi,
I have just purchased a new 60 litre freshwater tank to convert existing fish into new tank. The new tank has a plastic silver coloured lid which I have sprayed black inside and out with with an all purpose spray paint. I later discovered the small print on the can advising harmful to aquactic life. I can understand the spraying directly on the fish would be harmful but what I am concerned with is the light going to heat up the new paint and cause the water to have toxins that will damage the fish? The can said it can hold temprtures of up to 90 degrees but really could do with some advice before I even think about transfering the fish.
I am on a record with having my fish for more than a year would be upset if I lost them.
Many thanks
