LOL!! Well, kinda sorta!
I've been looking for a riverbed background picture for my fish tank since August, but the stores have been sold out of the size I need. I didn't want just plain blue or black, and I finally got tired enough of looking at the cords hanging behind the tank that I decided to make my own picture.
I used Dustin Pike images - lots of them! I used one of his designs as a template that I sized to 14" x 24" and then cut the sand and water out of scrapbook paper and added lots of fun characters. The trickiest part was trying to be sure I was leaving enough room in the right spots for the heater and filter tube so that they didn't hide anyone.
I don't know if my fish are happier with their new background, but I'm giggling and loving not seeing those dang cords!
Thanks for visiting!

I love it! Only your fish would have their own handmade background -- lucky fish!
You think of the coolest stuff! That is awesome! Love it!
I am certain your fish love their new grotto! Now the little piggies are going to be jealous.
