Species-appropriate environment
Fish need more than plants and caves to feel at home. One way to provide protection is to use a suitable background, which indicates a safe zone in the aquarium. A background is not only welcome for the fish but it is also helpful for hiding unattractive technical items. Give your aquarium more flair and offer your aquarium dwellers a species-appropriate environment. Use:
Cut the foil background all around one cm smaller than the aquarium or terrarium background. Lay the aquarium/terrarium with the front pane on a stable enough surface. Apply an external cap of JBL Fixol on about the middle of the back glass. Lay pre-cut foil background on top and smooth it with the enclosed spatula from the centre outwards, avoiding bubbles. Wipe off excessive glue with a cloth or tissue paper. Fix background foil all around with transparent adhesive tape. Can be removed with clear water at any time.

FAQs
What is aquarium sealant?

Aquarium sealant is a type of adhesive that is specifically designed for use in fish tanks and other aquatic environments. It is used to seal joints and seams in the tank, as well as to attach decorations and other items to the tank.

Aquarium sealant is typically made from silicone, which is a waterproof and flexible material that is resistant to deterioration from water, heat, and chemicals. It is specifically formulated to be safe for use in aquatic environments, so it does not release any harmful toxins or pollutants into the water.

To use aquarium sealant, you typically apply a small amount of the sealant to the joint or seam that you want to seal, using a caulking gun or other applicator. You then smooth the sealant with a wet finger or tool to create a smooth, even surface. The sealant will typically take several hours to cure, during which time you should avoid disturbing it or adding water to the tank.

Aquarium sealant is an important tool for maintaining a fish tank and ensuring that it is watertight and safe for the fish and other aquatic life living in the tank. It is important to use aquarium sealant carefully and to follow the manufacturer's instructions to ensure that it is applied properly and safely.
