POLL: Which Color Background

[FishGoneWild]

If these were your choices of background colors which would you choose and why? This will be for a 48" acrylic tank background.

I cannot decide between dark blue and black. Below are sample pics for reference.

Personally I like blue backgrounds. I'm not a big fan of the really "busy" ones you see for sale in like petsmart with the fish and the plants and the rocks, but that's just my opinion. Blue backgrounds do a great job of accenting what's already inside your tank

I personally like all black backgrounds!

Black goes with anything. You don't have to color coordinate your fish with your back ground. I one had a bright plaid green fish and man did it clash with my blue background

Black make the fish stand out more and aid in photography. It makes a nice contrast no matter what, and the tank will appear to be deeper.

I like both the dark blue and the black. I do feel that black brings out more color though.
