    Do any of you have a display tank with black silicone seams? How do they look compared to tanks with the more traditional clear silicone?

    i had a 55 with black and i can say it doesn't look as nice i think it makes the tank seem smaller

    I have tanks with both. I prefer the Black. The clear tends to get dirty and you can notice it where on the black you dont.
