You may want to do it this way as well.Hope this helps!

I have tried using those white plastic sheet purchased from book shop without the need of suction cup.

For small tank, design and cut in the way that all sides are folded out from a single piece. Just press it down and position it in a way that the two sides lock the front and the rear panel (if all sides are to be covered).

For big tank, just design in a way that back panel and bottom are folded using a single piece and making use of the two sides, position in a way to further secure it in place. This design is with front viewing. To cover all sides. Just need to have the front, back and bottom folded using a single piece.

Using this method, you can change the colour of your tank background into any colour of your wish.

Is it safe? Will there be any chemical reaction from prolonged submission in water?
