Flipped 75g and installed universal rock background

[Marden]

So, about 6 months ago I put a nasty scratch in the middle of my tank. (It was a case of being lazy with my mag float and catching a piece of substrate between it and the glass.)

 

So of course every time I looked at my tank my eyes would be transfixed on the scratch. I finally had enough and decided I was going to empty the tank and flip it around. I figured I would install a background from universal rock while I was at it. 
 

I did this over the course of 2 days, emptying the water and fish into a couple large clean garbage bins. An inexpensive water pump made the job relatively easy.
 

Unfortunately it also means my crypt garden needs to start over. I’m optimistic because I upgraded from a 29g a couple years ago and the crypts transferred nicely. 
 

One thing that I didn’t account for was the inability to suction cup things to the back glass now. Despite the effort I’m really enjoying the background and the scratch free glass.

Just waiting for the water to clear up!
