Does anyone know where I can buy a black canopy? Or maybe a DIY? Thanks for looking.

Big difference !.. The tank seems more at peace...

BTW, Nice dumbells.

You have 4 H.O.B on there????

Why not 1 or 2 with a big *** canister? or w/d?

Yea w/ the photo background it made the tank too "busy"

Yea I have (2) Penguin 330's and (2) AC110's. I actually have two spare AC110's that I'm selling and I would throw them on my 125 if I had any room. I had a canister before and it broke down on me so maybe I'll get a wet/dry when I upgrade from my 125.

I like the black background a lot more than the photo one. The only fish that i've seen have more color are my clown loaches and I don't know if it's b/c of the black background or if they're just feeling more comfortable in my tank.

It looks better black IMO. Mostly because the stand and hood are black.

If the stand and hood where brown, the plant background would look better, i think.

Time to get some monsters for that tank.

I tried a black background, but my fish kept seeing their reflections and were attacking the glass like crazy.
