Thanks! I didn't think I would like it this much, but I love it! My corys stand out a lot more, and the overall look is great, I think. :)

Wow.....
Not that it sucked before, but I think you'll agree both the plants and the fish really "pop" when you have a black substrate.. :)75g - 20 cardinals : 7 panda cory : 5 Julii cory : 9 zebra danios : 1 CAE : 2 SAE : 2 yo-yos : 1 BN

Thanks for the kind words!!
I do think it makes the plants pop more! they look great. :)
My wisteria has sort of exploded in growth. I think I need to split it up more and spread it out across the back of the tank more than it is now. That'll be a project for another time though, I'm afraid. lol

That looks great, what sort of plant is that on the large rock on the right?

Ellen, Great job on the aquascaping. The black substrate really makes the plants stand out. It looks great!
