Can I see some pictures of SPS with Black Background

My Background is blue right now and its not setup yet since the hurricanes. I'm trying to convince my wife to let me change the background to black so the blue and purple SPS stand out better. Can I see full tank shots of tanks with black backgrounds

Black backgrounds always make the coral colors pop...blue blackgrounds just blend in with everything. I think some people think that the blue looks more like ocean water...IMO...they are mistaken.

Go to the ZEO forums and look around for Edward's pictures, he utilizes a black background and his corals are simply amazing.

Steve thats an awesome tank, do you have a full tank shot?

64Ivy: that Sohal is MASSIVE!

i think black backgrounds look the best, I have used them on all of my tanks, I agree with steve that it really makes the colors of the coral stand out much better.

Agreed. All tanks here looks like toys next to Steve's tank. We need to create a "Tank of the Decade" contest.
