DIY 25g cube rimless

[sethsolomon]

So I am working on building a 25g rimless cube for a new planted tank and cant make up my mind on silicon color.

 

 

What do people think?

I've never been a fan of black silicone, especially on a rimless, feel like it takes away from the entire aesthetics.

yah I think I feel the same way.

I concur as well. Have been planning out my first tank for the past few weeks (an 18 x 18 x 18 custom rimless cube). When I first saw a picture of a rimless with black silicon I thought 'that looks sharp!", but it was an empty tank. In every picture I've come across of established tanks with black silicon, it feels as though my eye is first drawn to the silicon rather than the contents of the tank. That makes me believe that over time I'd come to see it as a distraction or obstruction rather than as a 'cool touch of bling'.  That's just my personal take on it though...
