Current 5ft tank for my red aro, is all black side, back and bottom. wondering is it advisable to change either one side (now thinking either back or bottom) to white or at least blue color? coz the tank seems abit dark now....

If really go for the change, anyone to contact to do the job? and roughly cost how much? how to deal with all the fishes inside for the work?

Thanks thanks

IMHO, I feel dark bg is always good to showcase your Red. Also I read somewhere, a darker bg will induce darker colour tone in the fish too, especially for Red. But before you reach that stage, you must still tan your Red and feed it well to ensure the red colour development. White or lite bg is better for Goldies. Was in Pang Long and Panda recently. They are keeping the goldies in white fgt with powerful white light to push the gold out. Just sharing. Do let me know if my understanding is wrong. Thanks!

black is nice for RED in my opinion.

I, too, feel that black with sufficient lighting looks best for reds.

Cheers

How about for the gold aro?
Saw some pic with blue, some with white.. So which one is the best?

Thanks
