I have the vinyl sheet that's black on one side and blue on the other, so I can change it to suit my moods.

vinyl! thats the word I was looking for! anyways, I don't have mine stuck on, just taped on as I wasn't sure I would like it. I would suggest trying out the double sided stuff as ReeferRob suggested, that way you can decide which you like better

i chose black because it mask the overflow more and the lockline will not stand out as much. just my opinion though

I chose black.Black back and sand would contrast nice with bright coral.

I did blue but I wish I would have done black, it would bring out the colors more.

My backing is black and I think it looks more classy but makes the tank look darker.

Nobody thought about white? I've seen white back grounds on tanks and they really brighten up the whole thing.
