I'm planning on building a 360g plywood tank in the next couple months, and I have a question regarding color.

What color background/walls/substrate are most conducive to viewing and taking pictures of the fish? I want something that makes the fish stand out so they're easily seen, and looks good when I take pictures as well. Which colors are best for this?

I've been thinking either tan sand with a black background, or black sand with tan background...
 
I do not have one favorite.
I like dark green backgrounds with natural or black gravel.Black sand also works,but I'm not a fan of sand.

I also like black backgrounds with black gravel,or white sand.
 
do tan sand with a black background...it will look much better
