paint

[lancer]

I painted the back of my tank with an acrylic paint, and then got my tank drilled for overflows. I want the overflows to match the back color, but do not know if the acrylic paint will be toxic to the fish once it dries. Anyone here done this before?

well if you overflow parts are PVC or some other form of plastic you can try a die, its easy to come up with a notox die. As for paint I dont no you can contact the manufacture. But if its a water based paint it will slowaly breakdown and disolve into the water. If its oil base paint I would think that some of the oils are toxic.
Good luck sorry I did not have better info
