Where to find good backgrounds

[Spongebob20]

Hey guys,

After much consideration I've decided I want to put a background on my tank. I don't want a plain blue or plain black background. I would like a background that is dark blue and fades into a really deep dark blue or black, so it looks more realistic and adds depth. Anyone know where I can find this type of background online? Thanks!

I would make your own.... buy the blue background then paint where you want the darker spots

ya I was thinking that... any tips for making the color change really gradual from dark blue to black?

Here. This site is good, and it's what I used.

DB7, or DB103 - depending on the size of your tank.

I used something like these (http://www.thatpetplace.com/double-back-background-deep-blue-sea-midnight-sea-24in-by-ft)on my 105g to cover up the stuff behind the tank until the coraline coated it. Back then most of the fake backgrounds had double-side of blue or gradient blue.
