concealing overflow pipes

[gravereaper0]

How can I limit the presence of the overflow and return pipes? Don't want to paint the back or use overflow boxes, I was thinking I would just use clear acrylic tubes which would work for intakes but for the return there are no clear loc line parts. Anyone have any ideas?

clear tubs will change in color over time

Clear will look rubbish when they start to get green on them

Why don't you have a weir that's the way it should be done

I use black plastic trashbags on outside back of the tanks for backgrounds. everyone thinks they are painted when theyre not.

Guess there's no way aroynd it Where can I buy the weir walls? I only see them in complete kits but I just want the wall that hides the tubes.

Get cork bark and fix in front of the pipes


It gives the tank a 3d look

Lots of things you can do just be artistic

Yea thats one thing I ain't. That's a good idea I was also thinking of sticking a laminated picture of aquatic plants on it
