I'm thinking that most people are misunderstanding my point here. I know that fish's colors look different in different colored lights and backgrounds and such but my original question was, do background colors affect the fish's color? Not through our eyes, but their actual colors. I noticed this happens in FW Discus. When you keep Discus in a tank with a dark background they develop tiny black dots all over their bodies, and they brighten up with lighter colors.

Btw, I used to like black at first also but now I think aquariums and fish look alot better with a dark blue background.
