BB starboard question

[skuntking]

Just wondering if anyone has used the black starboard for their BB, if so can i see some pics.or any other colors

I've heard of a few people doing it.
Personally, I think white has more benefit in that it will reflect a bit of light back up to the undersides of the corals. How much and how significant I don't know...

never thought of that to much, just thought it would look kinda cool

I use black. Looks great! You just have to siphon when you do a WC + keep the flow near the bottom and crank the skimmer up. No more algae outbreaks and I clean the glass once every two weeks.
