I have a 30g established tank that i would like to paint black on the back of it. What would be the best way to get this done. Can I do it while the tank is still standing?

If you can reach back there you can roll on some acrylic paint with a smooth roller.
Or if you have the room you can apply black vinyl. The kind where you spray water on it, apply, and then squeege the water and air bubbles out. That's what i used but i did it before the tank was filled and i could pull it away from the wall.

It's about 6 inches from the wall.. I should be able to roll some paint on if im careful. I know it's a glass tank so im not sure if the acrylic paint will hold

Yes it will. Clean it first.
