Stuck on color for substrate

[varanio]

I agree w/ what you said earlier, that is if you keep the blue background, go w/ black sand and if you make the background black, go w/ the red. I have had white-ish sand in a few tanks and hated it in every one, so I switched to black t-grade. I also had gray sand w/ a black background before and it looked good.

Here's a couple pix of my tank w/ black background and red s-grade if you haven't seen them already. http://www.monsterfishkeepers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=128187

That looks great! I dig that alot. I am gonna go see what the distributor has and make my decision then.

A couple of thoughts make a cork or slate background and attach to the inside of the tank covering the blue or if your brave Krylon fusion black paint and lots of masking tape-Anne

What is the blue background? Spray painted blue? If it was was painted you could paint either black over that on the outside or white if you wanted to darken or lighten the blue. Just an idea, if the blue was just not the right blue, you could def change the darkness of the color that way I bet.
