Hydor H2show Lost Civilizations Aquarium Background and Fixing Gel

Looks great, only four stars because applying the background can be messy; the gel that comes with it makes it look even better but make sure not spill any on the floor, that stuff isn't wiped easily. Overall I'm very happy with this product.(Picture doesn't really do the justice)

Lovely quality product, came with included glue, just felt that the quality and care taken with this product was great, the picture is beautiful quality and looked really good on my fish tank

Quite expensive, I am not convinced there is any 3d effect here and actually can barely be seen- on its own, when removed from packaging looks quite beautiful but when stuck to the aquairum its more like brown gradient rather than any of the designs showing up. It was as expensive as one of the ornaments and dont really know if it has added any more value to the look of the aquarium. I bought it because it fit into the general theme of our aquascape and expected it to enhance the overall look but Im not sure it does that. The ornaments, on the other hand, are beautiful.

Now that it's on the tank, I'm pleased with this. Its nice and bright and ties in well with my aquarium ornament theme. However, getting it on the tank wasn't easy, and it still has a tendency to peel off at the top corners. The material is quite thin so you have to be careful when cutting to size. The instructions then tell you to spread the gel liberally to the backing and apply to the tank. Word of warning here...the "gel" is more like a thick oil, and you don't need as much of it as you think. I used a credit card to smooth out the air bubbles, and a fair amount oozed from the sides. This then went everywhere. We were sliding around on the kitchen floor for days afterwards. Using the gel does make the picture much sharper at the back of the tank, but I'm not sure I'd go through this again if I ever want to replace it.

Prompt delivery with easy instructions on how to apply to the back of the tank. Only down side is that the background we chose was slightly darker than we exoected but still looks good. A wide range of choice though and would use this company again

My pampered fish love it!Okay, they probably haven't got a clue what is going on behind them, but I love it. I chose this to go with the colours in my kitchen and I'm now slowly adding some greenery to make it home from home for my many little babies.It's very handy that this comes with the fixing gel, that I have to say I got into a bit of a fix with - it's very slippery and me being me got into a nice squirmy mess with it when the bottle slipped out of my hands when I was applying it. We were all slipping around on the kitchen tiles for days afterwards, but in the tank, where it is supposed to be (on the outside) it worked brilliantly, with some left over spare. Despite my accidental wastage.

Used for a terrarium. Both items are well made, and so far no UV-fading.

Arrived within few days, good packaging, didnt use it in fish tank, got a frame and stuck it on the wall. looks great
