Can you not slide a sheet of acrylic behind in the colour you'd like. I know it's not quite as good as an actual background but it might be better than the red.
I had great 'fun' fitting my plain black background... note to self, in future always leave a little more than a hand width between the back of the tank and the wall behind! Vaseline got on everything, it was a nightmare keeping it out of the tank during the process... and it still has some bubbles which I can't get at
I have the same problem, I can't get my hand around the back of the tank, I can reach the back on the left / right sides but can't get to the centre. It's beause it's the bottom tank on a double stand and I put it very close to the wall. It was easy enough to do the top tank because I can slide things down the back from the top but can't do that on the bottom tank.
Took a pic this morning of the goldie tank, nice and clear now but still looks pants
I shouldn't have moved the wood, I think it looked better where it was, I'll move it back next week, this week I'm concentrating on the top tank.
Here's the double tanks(and my frog tank to the left);
As you can see it's very difficult to do anything on the bottom tank because of the top one.
It's all temporary anyway, hopefully by september I'll have my double 4ft setup, this one will be going and I'll have the goldie tank back on it's original wooden stand.I will remember to order and stick on some black backing before I do anything with any of them. I need to clean that big water stain off the back of the goldie tank as well, it drives me mad but can't reach it to clean it

Once I've moved everything around I'll have a 2ft tank empty, will be fun stocking that
