Safe paint for in tank?
I have used krylon fusion in the past to paint overflows, and such in the tank, but i cant find it anymore. The only thing i can find around here is made by rustoleum, is called special plastic, and im not sure if its safe or not. Has anyone used this before?

You can paint the INSIDE of a tank? Wow, I didn't know that. What kind of paint is it again?

I used the Rustoleum spray paint for plastic (painted my acrylic overflow) and I can vouch for it 100% that it IS OKAY. I've had it in the tank for approx 2 months now.
BTW, I let mine dry for about 3 days before I used it in the tank. For acrylic, I had to do 3 recoats hope that helped

What makes the paint safe? Is there something is has to not have? I know that is what it is with the pvc glue, there is a special chemical it can't have (can't remember it off the top of my head). But I want to paint my returns, so krylon fusion and rustoleum plastic paint is safe for reefs, any others?

Wouldn't there be a problem with taking off the paint when you scrape off coralline algae? If the paint got scratched and partially peeled the tank would end up looking kinda bad.
