If you see a solid triangle, then you use TrianglesSolid, try also
Menu * TrianglesRelief.

In any case the colors of a menu triangle is controlled using hi(light)
and sh(adow) attributes of the menu colorset. With TrianglesSolid, only
hilight color is used, it is evaluated from bg color if not explicitely
given, hilight of "gray" is "white". Example of colorset usage in menus
(from migo theme in fvwm-themes):

  # inactive menu item fg+bg and menu face
  Colorset 5 fg rgb:f8/f8/f3, bg rgb:47/47/68, CGradient 50 rgb:50/50/78 
rgb:40/40/5a

  # active menu item fg+bg
  Colorset 6 fg rgb:f8/f8/f3, bg rgb:40/5a/40

  # greyed menu item fg
  Colorset 7 fg gray, bg gray

  MenuStyle * MenuColorset 5, ActiveColorset 6, GreyedColorset 7
  MenuStyle * TrianglesRelief
