Hello. I am starting to put together a new 40b reef tank with a 20L sump. This will be my first saltwater tank, all my previous experience being with freshwater, as well as the first time I have used a sump or built my own stand.
I have a question about the inside of my stand. I am planning on making a wooden stand using the templet here on the site. I will probably paint the stand with KILZ or something similar before I finish it. Is it better to finish the inside of the stand white to make it easy to see around in or a dark color like black to help keep extra light from the refugum from bouncing around and causing algae in places I don't want it?
Is this a problem or am I over thinking this?
thanks for the help.
