So with the new tank, the design and aesthetics call for the back glass to stay clean.
However, when clean, my Achilles can see his reflection and has been fighting with himself every waking moment.

Currently I have black coriplast behind tank for a black background.

Any suggestions on how to manage the back glass so he can't see himself?

Thinking some type of plastic inserts each side of the overflow, although not sure how to keep them in place.

The Achilles should stop sooner or later as long as he doesnt suffer too much damage from fighting the glass.

That's what I figured last month. I'm guessing we're past sooner and moving into later? :)

No.

Do you think this would reduce reflection?

No.

That's what I used for my tank back wall.. 5% limousine tint. Seems to work ok. And you can peel it off later.

No, he's just fine where he is. When the back is dirty, he's fine. I just need to figure out a clean non reflective solution.
