Hi
I'm really not getting on with sand so I've decided I'm going to go back to gravel in my corner tank, the problem is though I don't know what colour to go for.
I'm back to the initial dilemma I had when I set this tank lol, I'd like black gravel but I'm not sure it would look okay.
At the moment the background is a stick-on outside one of dull grey rocks, the fish are 5 brightly coloured Discus (3 Marlboro Reds, 2 Alenquers and 1 Blue Diamond), a small shoal of Cardinals and Rummynoses, some Corys and 2 Bristlenoses. I am going to be adding some plants, bogwood, speckled cobbles and slate once I've sorted the substrate out.
Here are a couple of pics of the corner tank as it is now, I think the pale sand washes everything out, what do you think?
Do you think black gravel would look okay or do you think just a natural coloured one would look better?
Thanks for any help.![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
