i used the black spray paint specially for glass from b+q first coat didnt cover well enough and the second coat reacted with the first n peeled the first coat off
if you have a hobby/craft shop near where u live id get some black card from there

Used black card on mine. Looks fine.

Just an update while I wait for the cycle to complete,if it ever will . Started the fishless cycle two weeks ago,have nitrite at 25mg/l, nitrate at 250mg/l(down from 500+ following water changes), ammonia I have kept at 2ppm only rather than the 4ppm. Would this be expected after 2 weeks,never had such a rush of nitrate/nitrite before in any tank I have cycled. Struggling to keep the temp up in the tank,never had that problem with marines,must of been heat generated by the pumps etc. Just going to have a read on how to upload pics and will put a few up for comments
