    Is Paint safe for a BP?

    I need to paint one of the hides I made black.

    I don't have any heating or lights in my tank (our temps in the Philippines are perfect for these guys) so the paint won't react to anything.

    Thanks for taking time to read this!

    For the most part paint is fine. It needs to out gas for a while (thinners need to leave) I like to keep things painted for a week and somewhere hot and well ventilated. If there is no chemical paint smells it should be fine.
