camtang Posted April 13, 2014 Report Share Posted April 13, 2014 Is there any reason to use a particular colour on the back of a tank? I know black adds depth to a tank, but why other colours? Has anyone tryed anything other than black and blue? I have a green background in my "hulk" tank and I think it brings out the plants a bit.

Adrienne Posted April 13, 2014 Report Share Posted April 13, 2014 I am boring and went for black. While it was great on the rainbowfish tank it is not so on the discus as it is encouraging those with pigeon blood in them to pepper a lot.

camtang Posted April 13, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2014 Yeh I have found black bad for Frontosa's but was really good for ost of the other Africans that I have had in the past. Soes white paint have any other effect that you know Ron? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Discusguru Posted April 13, 2014 Report Share Posted April 13, 2014 White background are mostly used by discus breeders and keepers of pigeon base discus . Discus with pigeon base will have a cleaner body without much if any peppering. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
