i hate the idea of a glass bottom tank, and i totally love black but everything says no black for FH's. so on the opposite end is white ok? i'm trying to avoid blue or pink, and river gravel doesn't interest me either.....or is glass bottom best?
white substrate for FH's???

I think the idea is too light and you wash the FH color out. Too dark and you make it too dark to see the fishes true colors. What kind of FH just a LFS grade? Are you using a background?
He would look good over any substrate though. I'm a black background over black sand guy but I think this turned out better than I could have ever imagined. It's just your personal preference. I don't think substrate plays a big role if you've got the right light and background on the tank.
Not to derail but that fish is sweeeeeeet Camphilophus!
I agree that it will depend on the strain of FH as to what color or colors to use... Read JP's sticky up top.

I think I spent like $40 on it because I had to buy small bags but I got it at a store called "Pet Supplies Plus." Just about every fish store I've ever been to carries white gravel though. I've bought white gravel from a store called Meijer too.

Check you PH first. For instance I have 7.5-8.0 ph right out the tap.. So I don't use it.
