Default Fish Room Color
I am ready to paint the fish room for my 200g inwall system. Figured I would start a poll on what color it should be.

I would do it white so you don't get any coulor from the walls reflecting in your test toobs when you are doing water tests.

We have a wall behind our fish tank that is done with "Black bean soup" (almost black) and it is AWFUL for showing salt...hard to keep clean the darker you go...I'd go white...it would really brighten everything and easier to hide the salt....

I voted red. A dark red or burgundy will contrast the bright colors of you're tank, it will draw ones eyes to it imediately. The only down side is that Red is the hardest color to paint, there's usually lots of coats needed.
