I installed a 3D "Ledge" Universal Rocks background into my 165 Gallon tank a couple of months ago. The plants were added this past week so they are just starting out.
Had to remove all of my fish for a few days while the silicone cured (siliconed back side edges to glass), that was the most difficult part of the install.
I drilled approx 100 small holes with an electric drill 3/8 bit in inconspicuous places, so now my heater and both canister filter intakes are concealed behind. The only visible equipment are the spraybar returns and a thermometer. Overall I'm very happy with the background, and the fish seem to like it as well. They spend alot of time grazing on the various ledges and outcroppings, and seem more interested in their surroundings.
I'm not sure if the picture captures just how nice it looks, but I definitely recommend this product.
