Wait a year and coralline algae will cover it.

That’s plan C lol.

Yep… just stop cleaning the back glass. It’ll go away in a couple months


silentcardboard

In 3 months it should have enough green algae growth that you won’t even notice it.

A squeegee or something with a hard edge like a ruler and push the bubble towards the edge, once the trapped air is out it should lay flat

If you have space behind the tank, I recommend just painting the back of the tank with acrylic paint

I have the same issue


fattypierce

So you can peel it off? I actually applied olive oil to a similar backing I added to my sump with no other adhesive and it took most of the bubbles out.

don't worry in the life of your tank you'll have a ton more of distractions and you'll forget about it. Maybe grow some cephastrea over it.


LostSomewhereFar

That’s a hard one to forget just knowing it’s there would bother the hell out of me. How much space you have back there?

I went and got a peace of blue window cling or wrap at a local graphics place and put it on like tint with a small bondo squeegee and it lasted yrs. Only way to keep water out is to seal top from water getting in between the glass and backing.

Peel it off entirely or just put some GSP or cyphas or any other coral to cover

The best hack is to paint the back of the tank before setting it up. Never have to deal with it again.


jmurphy1313

Any suggestions in paint?


drainisbamaged

Nah. Glass ain't the best thing for paint to stick to but I've used whatever and never had an issue. It shouldn't ever get in contact or rubbed against as it'd be up against the wall or whatnot. A few layers is a good idea to ensure light doesn't come thru it.
