What colour sand for JAGS

[d1rt]

Any suggestions? I have two beautiful looking Jags at the moment, both about 8 inches and are in a 120 (4x2x2
Yes, soon they will need a bigger tank, thank you in advance.
PFS, black sand, gravel?
I have seen many examples of all, was wondering if anyone had any in depth information.
Thanks for your time.

a mix of black and white sand is cool

yea maybe a mix of black and white sand or you could do black sand and white/light color rocks....seems like alot of people are wondering what sand to use today haha

i'm not a fan of mixing them both, really.
the topic of the month/week, whichever is, sparked my curiosity.
due to the jags having beautiful black markings, i was curious as to whoever has had experience with black sand while housing jags.

in my jag tank, i use light coloured sand, with a black back ground, with driftwood and almond leaves looks good

i have 2 jags with 75% white pool filter sand and 25% black sand i think it looks good. i would defiantly go with sand and do not use gravel

I have black sand in my jag's tank, I like it better than PFS. The PFS always looked dirty while the dark hides the poop in between wc's. Hard to say if the Jag looks better after dark sand or if he just grew into his colors.

You may laugh at this, but try red or orange. The fish colors will pop.
