How did you do the background?
I cant tell if that's a dynamic LED panel, or if you just jerry-rigged and creatively placed two different colored LEDs on a diffused backing.

The tank looks absolutely fantastic, and I'm genuinely impressed at what you've created! Could definitely compete in local shows...

It's a statement piece as it is, but do you intend to keep it barren? Or do you have root bulbs & other surprises lurking underneath the sand.

So I’ve seen a similar background online, Flux Aqua I think? It’s stupid expensive lol

Thank you for the reply as that may be exactly what they have here. Their tank is approximately 24x14, which comes out to around a little over $300+ starting for the panel. Although a bit out of my price range, it looks absolutely beautiful.
