Thinking of using a cork background for your aquarium?

Hey, you can feel free to think so if it makes you feel better.
As to our species doing more harm than good on the planet. We can not
as yet sterilize the planet. Sure, we can run amok and render the
biosphere incapable of supporting us and other large lifeforms, at
least until we die off from our own folly. But life will continue and
in time repopulate the niches emptied by our actions. *WE* will not be
here to see it, but such is life.  This does not give us license to
plunder and pillage to our hearts content, but we should realize that
we do change the environment to suit our needs, as do other species
like Elephants and goats.
How many species have elephants knowingly extincted or endangered?
I did not say we were autoclaving the planet, merely that we do more harm
than good.
As for using cork as a background, that has always looked kinda retro
to my eyes. Like something out of the 60s and 70's.
Perhaps on its own, but I have seen some nice walls of mosses and ferns
grown out of cork backgrounds.
