Paint for tank?

I'll have to look into it. I used a acrylic paint on my 46 gallon, it turned out good, but it doesn't have that rich black look to it. Also when I go to use the magnet glass cleaner, the out side part of the magnet peels the paint off. I'm just looking for other options.

Plexiglass is a decent idea, but what if you have a drilled tank? Even the window tint will haved to be cut to allow for the drilled hole. But easier, so would be my choice of the two.
I personally am looking to decide between black or blue? And I feel like I will propably not clean the back glass anyway, just the front and sides. I like the look of the coraline, and it serves a purpose as far as snails and fish. A good place for them to snack.

Rustoleum makes a spray-on rubbery coating and there's also a company that makes a product called "Plastidip", which I believe is a similar thing. I used the Rustoleum product in black. At first I freaked out because it was really liquidy, but you have to have short, even strokes with it and eventually it covers really well. One can took care of the back of my 40-gallon. And it will peel off later if you need to make a change. It's got a smooth, matte finish.
If you look in the spray can aisle at the hardware store, it should be easy to find. Sorry I didn't remember the name.
