Ideas for a fish tank background...

Post by yafashelli »

So, my son brought home a fish, which meant that mommy set up the tank. And got two more... Hey, he needed friends! So, now I need a tank background. It's a fairly small tank (a rectangular ten gallon), but even so, I'll still need a good sized image. It'll have to be blown up to something about 12"x20, without sacrificing too much image quality. My preference is Super Mario (something SNES or later), but basically, any mario goes. I'm also open to big Zelda images (Ocarina of Time was my favorite, but then again, I loved them ALL). :link - :Link Oh, man! A Water Temple image, perhaps? For all you Star Wars fans...a Gungan city, perhaps---Jan-gwa?

It shouldn't be anything too flashy, as some of it will be hidden beneath a bubble curtain (if I ever get off my a**, and put one in).

Any ideas?

I've only just begun looking, but I've so far come up with this:

So send me your Marios, your Zeldas, your Star Wars...yearning to hide the paneling behind my tank...

Please and Thank you!

make a zelda phantom hourglass or windwaker background

it could be link on the dragon boat above the waterline (leave 2-3" above the waterline to the top of the tank)
and the gold hunting underneath the surface!

That actually sounds pretty awesome - I might do that for my own tank! :P

Well then.. since everyone needs their own tank idea, i guess you could try getting a generic sunken ship and bubbly treasure chest inside the tank, then the background picture could be dark dark blues with a giant blooper in a cave :)
