"I just love these lights!"

If you look closely at the picture, the sand has a slight left to right slant. I do recommend having two people to install it and laying the tank flat. Not hard at all with the right tools. It is easy to install but you NEED to follow the instructions. However, I think it went on fairly smoothly. I have been taking photos daily and the difference is very noticeable. Being able to change the background color makes the tank that much more exciting.

Galapagos 7 59834 05401 6 Final Thoughts

"Very easy to use."

I might just add an led light bar to the top of my aquarium for more effect. Print quality was clear and sharp, looks good in my tank. I applied my new aquarium back ground today. It shrinks a tiny bit so don't cut it to exact size before you apply. However, I think it went on fairly smoothly. Also had an issue with the first light sent and they replaced it very quickly. Bought the 16 x 32 for a 29 gallon.

2. homozy Aquarium Background, Static Cling, Tropical

homozy First Impressions

"Great deep blue color."

Fairly easy to install and operate. I attached to the outside of my 30 gallon tank with clear tape that is removeable. The high light setting really lights up the entire tank. I have tried adjusting the led bar's position but nothing helps. I searched alot for something I liked at a decent price. It works exactly like it's supposed to. I have turtles, so it's only a few inches of water, but I see tiny bubbles.

"Hope this helps."

Overall, pretty happy with this purchase! The image is a bit darker than it appears in the photo, but I'm happy with it. O have it between two windows and it gets way to much light. Apply following instructions and then use a blade to trim the bottom edge. Overall, pretty happy with this purchase! O have it between two windows and it gets way to much light.

"Which I don't."

I cut it to fit and it has stayed put for months. I searched alot for something I liked at a decent price. It's really a really cool addition to your tank. I prefer the cling backgrounds to the kind sold at pet stores. Fantastic background for my 20 gallon tank. It would be easier on a new tank that you can face directly while applying. My only issues is I am using it for my aquaponics tank.

"Typical office tape."

Making sure there are no bubbles is a little trickier. Not hard at all with the right tools. Was a bit big for my tank but that was ok. I ended up having to paint the back black in order to have it do that job. This looks exactly like the picture- very thin cling film with vibrant colors. I think it makes my aquarium very lush. Paper is very sturdy and stunning when easily applied with normal scotch tape.

"Absolutely amazing!"

I recently purchased a 40 gallon tank and I wanted to do something really creative. Was a bit big for my tank but that was ok. The colors are not super bright, but I expected that based on the reviews. It would be easier on a new tank that you can face directly while applying. Putting the light on though is a 2 minute job anyone can do. It is a plastic film- not a cling and no adhesion. I had to order another for the other side of the aquarium, I never measure anything.

"Very easy to setup."

This background does a good job hiding wires and the external filter parts. I am very happy with this and was the final touch on my new tank. Their products are highly recommended!

5. Blue Ribbon Pet Products ABLVSB1219 White Decorative Rock Background for Aquarium, 19-Inch 50-Feet

Blue Ribbon 30797 First Impressions

"Just applied it."

Making sure there are no bubbles is a little trickier. There is a grid on the backing paper so you can measure easily to cut to tank size. Not sure I could cut it and make it look good if I had a smaller tank. I have a 90 gal tank which seems to be a bit too tall for a single led bar setup. If you have a spray bottle of water that will work perfectly. I have been taking photos daily and the difference is very noticeable. This couldnt be any easier to install for me.

"Looks amazing."

I just left it and wrapped it around the corners, blends right in. Was not as bright and sharp as this image. Although a few bubbles and streaks are there. I thought for sure one time when I was changing it. It is a plastic film- not a cling and no adhesion. And none of them creased or ripped. Imagine my surprise it's just black.

Best deal on Amazon- 6 different scenes! When I saw Current USA's video for the Serene system I just had to have it. It really brightens up the aquarium and reflects the light back out. This couldnt be any easier to install for me. Creates amazing background lit colors for aquarium. I had a water sprayer nearby that I use for my plants and it worked like a charm.

"I hope this helps others!"

It really brightens up the aquarium and reflects the light back out. Personally I think the cling backgrounds look better and last longer. However, I think it went on fairly smoothly. I applied my new aquarium back ground today. Much better than the view of the cords hanging behind it. I had a water sprayer nearby that I use for my plants and it worked like a charm. However it is perfect with my tank and decor.

However, I think it went on fairly smoothly. I tried a few different ones to see which I liked best. I have tried adjusting the led bar's position but nothing helps.

"It is pretty."

Very easy to apply, just peel off the clear film on the front of the image and apply. The remote control with a memory feature is awesome. If you are using this on a typcial tank that won't be a problem though. Also had an issue with the first light sent and they replaced it very quickly. Fairly easy to install and operate.

"I absolutely love it!"

I originally thoight this was only 2 scenes until I read through. Thank you Current USA for putting life back in my old tank. A little on the thinner side so be careful when cutting for it could tear easy. The cling is pretty strong if installed correctly. Everything great about it for my 90 gallon. I would easily buy again if needed. I choose to use the screws rather than the included double stick tape.

"Super cool background!"

I bought it for the sides of my aquarium. It's really a really cool addition to your tank. You can see in my pictures the bottom of the tank is pretty much white. Will most likely be ordering another one for our 75 gallon tank. This is a five gallon tank and it wraps around the side just like I wanted. If you have a spray bottle of water that will work perfectly. I really can't say enough about the overall look of this light.
