    Default ADA foggy screen backgrounds

    Does ADA or anyone else make the foggy screen backgrounds for larger tanks like 6-8 foot long tanks? What’s an alternative. The biggest I see they make is 90cm.

    There's a number of static cling films in all sorts of colors and opacities available on Amazon. I haven't made a seam in the lighter colored ones yet, but with the black stuff it hides pretty well. Either way, I have some light blue on my 4' discus tank and there was plenty left over, I think it would have done a 6 footer. But they come in different widths and lengths.

    I don't know what and ADA foggy screen is, but that's what I thought of...

    Thanks, Francis... that's absolutely the same as basically any static cling window film available on Amazon. And I would guess less expensive. A little water and dish soap, slap it on, trim it down... squeegee. Works well.

    This is the stuff I use, works great! https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...e?ie=UTF8&th=1

    For color, I have both a Serene LED that lets me change colors (i get bored easily) and a small white one:

    Wow ya that looks really nice! Is that the white or the “pure” background. I’m definitely going with that. And the light as well.

    Sorry, I don’t remember! I’d guess “pure”

    How did you set both your serene background led light and your white one together? I’m ordering those shortly

    Got the Led backlight installed. Was curious where you set your white lights with it
