But there are threads on reef central by a guy who uses the black pond foam in his tanks, he's pretty thorough with the instructions.

bertie says he and his wife make 3D backgrounds , I think he said for all of their tanks. I'd really like him to maybe start a thread and post some pics of them, I'd like to see them.

With all these i am tempted to restart a new project. So i would be honoured to create one for all you guys, step by step. Infact give me a week or two and i will start a background for all to see. Then when i can start a new setup i will be one step ahead. Stay tuned

I will just add it is very simple just time consuming. I dont want people to expect vids of me grinding metal etc, you will soon see how simple.

For those who wish to attemp this as i do you will need: a very sharp blade (i use stanley knife with carpet blade) knitting needle or other sharp object (thin screwdriver) small file set is useful depending on detail required. Most importantly syrofoam at a thickness that suits you, This will be the depth of the deepest raised bit of detail, I use 4-5"> The rest will be added at thhe beginning of my venture,

You've got to start your own thread, and it needs pics!
