Depends on the fish.My yellow labs,fronts and other bright or silver fish look great on black.My sons tank with rainbowfish and albino cories lookks fantastic as well.My jds or black angels,chanchito were all nearly invisible in tanks that were too dark.My lelupi turned brown and looked like crap on black sand,looked much better on white.
I love the black on black. I know mine might not be completely black, but
it is as black as I could get it and still look natural.
Makes my fish's colors pop. Also, I like it nice and dark. It sets the mood.
You can already see their nest on the left side of the tank.
This is 200 lbs of "Chilean Black". Noticed it's all polished rock. very nice quality. Not cheap.

Nice breeding pair Cam, I want some fry, 
Back on topic, I like the black on black also, but depends on the fish as already stated...

I have a black background with black and white mixed gravel. I wish the gravel was just all black, it looks amazing. The fish's colors really pop with the black background so without the white gravel mixed in i'm sure it will look nice.
I have black rocks and a dark blue background on my 125. When my pbass really color up it looks great.
I like it.heres mine, i have black tahitan sand in my 30 and love it, this is my 220. blacked out back with all purpose and aquarium sand.
