Starphire has a nice look, but maybe it tricks me since most of the people who own starphire tanks have beautiful established SPS dominant tanks. So maybe it's the corals that make the tank beautiful, not necessarily the glass.
Good point the corals do add beauty, taking attention away from any scuffs and or discoloration. However, someone mentioned above that he can't even tell the difference between his acrylic and his regular glass tank, both established. So there you have it lol. i would't know because i'm comparing my starphire to a 5 gallon glass that i use as a small quarantine. There is a difference in tint but i also believe that once the tank is beautiful and you add colors, clean the glass, and keep great water quality. It will look amazing regardless. Lighting makes a big difference too.
