Here are a few, 350gallon with black mirror type background:

I think it is important to keep the coraline off the glass as it adds depth to the aquascape. I let mine go a year before I cleaned it off and I would never go back to having it on the glass.

My 125...not a good shot but you get the idea.

IMO any CLEAN background is great. I chose black for the depth it adds, and being able to match my overflow and plumbing.

I let mine go to, but once I cleaned it I will not go back. SO much nicer, I will try and take a pic for before and after shots.
