Best way to place background on back of tank?

[piao liang yu]

I got some black background to put on the back of my 60 gallon. I assumed it had some peel and stick properties to it, but that is not the case. I guess I could use scotch tape. What have you done???

Nope, lather it with vegetable oil and then lay it on. Squeeze out the air bubbles and voila!

Lather it up! Haha really? That's a good trick.

Yeah get it nice and wet haha but seriously works great, air tight seal.

Then use a credit card to get the bubbles out .
