    Ya, someone in another thread mentioned automotive tinting, and I thought it was such a great idea I went out and bought some. Haven't gotten my tank set up yet, tho, but I'm betting it will look great. I didn't go with limo black, but I went with a 35%. From what it looks like it will make the back of the tank appear to be the same kinda of gray acrylic you find in some aquarium hardware.
