Got caught up in the DIY background hype...

nice dude
 
that looks awesome. Are there any updates? Last post was from few months ago.
I am building a background myself and I sealed the grout and paint with all purpose fiberglass resin. Do i still have to do another coat of epoxy or will the FG resin do?
 
Thanks! actually progress has halted for a while on this, but I did manage to get one side installed:

O, and as far as fiberglass vs epoxy resin goes; polyester (fiberglass) resin is supposedly OK if you let it cure long enough before install. I took the safe route because I had some epoxy laying around anyways, and just did a finish coat over top of everything.
 
Well here you all are. I finally installed the other half of the background and did some better aquascaping. The fish all seem to like the new cave, although it's not part of anyone's territory just yet. The largest pleco has taken a liking to it enjoy:
