you mean the black styrofoam board that looks like a rock wall? it can be found at nature and C328(not LH shop) cost around $20

No,other than that bec I useedd that once and it made my tank look darker.BTW is the black styrofoam cut to size?I bought mine in a 2 pc set,so it was not an exact fit.

Is this for planted or marine tank?

so what exactly are you looking for? the plastic sheet?
those are normally pasted on the OUTSIDE, not the inside

oic
ok
black styrofoam is the cheapest
12 iirc at petmart for 2 pieces that fits a standard 4ft tank

fibreglass is one step up
it's hollow moulded and shaped to look like rock
exceeding rare, as it's quite expensive (80+ for a piece that fits a 4ft tank if i'm not mistaken)

the most ex one is corkbark
i can't remember how much, but simon paid over 300 for enuff to cover his 4ft background
but things grow on and in it more readily as it has crevices
bad in that fish get trapped inside and could die, but if you silicone it properly and cover the gaps with netting perhaps, this shouldn't happen
