I was looking at putting a background in my next tank however the akva stabil A$900 maybe a little (well alot) on the high side...Tank length is 1500mm

I have seen some latex backgrounds (rock) however wanted to know if anybody has come across some reasonable priced versions in Australia. I "think" I want to place the heater and filter-inlet behind the background and I thought the latex background would be harder to keep in position to create this cavity. I really like the amazonia backgrounds showing roots and larger rocks.

Would there be any way to strengthen the latex versions if this is what I end up with.

cheers rob

There are several options.

Universal Rocks makes some great backgrounds, also Juwel have just released a bunch of backgrounds, although I think they are sized specifically for their tanks.

Other than that there are the original backgrounds from Back to Nature, which Xtreme & ASA can get (including the Universal & Juwel varients). The BTN backgrounds can be a bit pricey though.
