    I have one of those cheesy hang on back "pictures"... I'm not even sure what it's a picture of. Rocks I guess. Don't really notice it. But that was the point really because you *did* notice the wall and cables, etc. behind it.

    EDIT: next tank will be painted flat black. With black sand. One day. While I'm dreaming, it will also be 300+ gallons and in wall. :D

    I'm putting a few square feet of green star polyps up on the back of my tank

    Thats a good idea Iraf. Id imagine it would be a bit of a challenge to get them situated?
