Black Vs Blue Background?

[MikeO]

Can't decide on what colour backing plastic to put on my new tank. Currently have blue on existing tank, but think black might look cool.

Its a mbuna tank, so lots of contrasting colours from the fish and I am filling with white ocean rock - I think the white might contrast well against the black, but also worried the black might make things look a bit cramped?

Anyone tried black out before? Cant seem to find any pictures of a black backing with ocean rock.

Would love a 3D backgroud alas I do not have the funds for the size I need

Really? Try looking at some marine reef tanks

I would definitely go with black and instead of those crappy vinyl sheets paint the glass with either blackboard paint or tile paint.
