which paint to use
I am thinking about building a box type thing for my little 10 gallon to hide the filter tube and heater. I would like to paint this black so you can't see through it, otherwise defeating the point of it. What kind of paint could I use for this? Thanks!

I would recommend Melamine. This is a durable water resistant paint.

Thanks! Is it saltwater safe as well? This may become a nano reef some day too.
