Black posterboard is less than $1 per sheet at any crafts store, goes up in about 12 seconds, and looks great.

Just did our new tank with black vinyl. I used to do sign work on the side and had some left over.

My acrylic tank that I purchased has a very thin (1/16" or less) bonded to the back panel. My 75 I put a blue background like from petsmart, now 1 year later the entire back is covered in coralline algae. So unless you plan on scraping the back wall what choice is just temporary until Coralline blocks the view
