the back and sides are blue and I do barebottom and want the rays colors to stand out. Should I paint the bottom black?

lil 3M black sand would probably be better mike.... this way you can always change it out if you change your mind... personally i hate blue backgrounds.... too bright

my friend has just had a tank made with a black base and their ray's look fantastic on there, especially the flower's

I'd be hesitant to paint an acrylic tank. It's like getting a tattoo, once it's there, it's there.
