Vepotek Vibrant Sea Mounting & Glue Solution Combo Kit for Aquarium Background W/Squeegee

I really did not expect much from this product honestly, but was surprised that it was actually worth the seemingly outrageous cost. As long time aquarium enthusiast, my spouse and I have mounted many a background, usually with tape or the like and less than stellar results. This product resulted in a gorgeous, bubble free, vivid color background thoroughly adhered to the aquarium glass. What can I say? Never to old to learn a new trick. Recommended.

Worked great for the most part, background looks great. Just use the whole bottle...or most of it. I started with a layer, then had to remove and apply the rest on my 30 gal. Using the whole bottle in the first place would have saved a lot of time. This is not a 10 min project, I spent upwards of 45 min removing the bubbles, but it looks great. It makes quite the mess when you squeeze the lubricant(?) out the sides to remove the bubbles, but it's not too difficult to clean up. Seems like it's not to difficult to remove but a bit of a cleaning project.

Maybe I did something wrong but I don't see how I could have messed it up. Unless the background you are putting on your tank is completely flat, this will not hold it down. I used heat, and rubbed for probably about 20 mins, it still wouldn't hold down a very small curl at each corner.

1st off this stuff is messy and oily. 2nd off, I got it on my tank and it looked good. After a week or so streaks popped up on the poster on the back of my tank. I will get the squeegee and get it out and it will come right back. Too much work and not worth it.

I have 2 big areas that my aquarium background is no longer attached to the glass. So now i have to drain a lot of water out (60 gallon aquarium) to be able to move the tank to replace the background.

The only reason I gave it four stars instead of five is that it arrived broken and leaky. Helps the background stick very nicely, the scraper worked good and it didn’t smell or get stuck on my hands or anything. Very easy to use. Makes background very clear and vibrant.

Horrible ruined my background yuck! No internal seal was leaking and inside vacuum seal there was debris! Disgusting

Became leaking. Sounds like it’s a common problem. Fought with the background for 20 mins but it kept try to roll up and move around. Product is very oily. I’ll be sticking with good old tape from now on.
