You should be able to find vinyl adhesive backing at most craft stores - Michaels, AC Moore, etc. I just read another post where a member used mineral oil and a credit card to apply the adhesive without getting bubbles in the background. Might be worth a google search to see how that is accomplished.
Thanks!

agree with Jossie, paint is the way to go.
if it's not a display tank, i suggest to use styrofoam from HD. Just pill the plastic out then you'll have white background and keep the heat at same time.
Thank you guys. It is a brand new tank so I would like to avoid painting it...Also would like to get away fro Styrofoam..
Any "big white sticker" that you would know of? Cant find any on amazon
or maybe this: http://www.amazon.com/Gowrite-Erase-Rolls-White-AR1806/dp/B0027HJ52I/ref=sr_1_35?ie=UTF8&qid=1415304968&sr=8-35&keywords=white+sticker+paper
that is actually what I got: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00377TWSE/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Hope its good!
not sure your tank is acrylic or glass. Just a fair warning for acrylic tank, it's so hard to remove it if you change your mind.
