probably not your typical question here...


My wife and I are also into African cichlids. And i am searching hard for a background for a cichlid tank. Several years ago my wife and i bought a background for her 20h grow out tank for yellow labs which has since been torn down. She would really like to get the same background for a larger tank but we cannot for the life of us recall where we got it. my hopes are that somebody here can help. I have searched goggle images, several online retailers and manufacturers sites but no luck. The material is not your typical shiny high gloss type. it seems thicker and heavier with a bit of a grainy texture with low shine. we bought it approximately 10 years ago where ever we got it. Any leads would be greatly appreciated.

That is really nice. Here's some that are similar but not quite exact: http://www.aquaticsupplies.com.au/aq...ckgrounds.html

Oops, my eBay links were removed. Do a search for "aquarium background rock" on ebay; there are a few I found that were very similar to yours.
