We construct Seib erg-Witten curves for 5d N = 1 gauge theories whose Type IIB 5-brane configuration involves an O7-plane and discuss an intriguing relation between theories with an O7(+)-plane and those with an O7(-)-plane and 8 D7-branes. We claim that 5-brane configurations with an O7(+)-plane can be effectively understood as 5-brane configurations with a set of an O7(-)-plane and eight D7-branes with some special tuning of their masses such that the D7-branes are frozen at the O7(-)-plane. We check this equivalence between SU(N) gauge theory with a symmetric hypermultiplet and SU(N) gauge theory with an antisymmetric with 8 fundamentals, and also between SO(2N) gauge theory and Sp(N) gauge theory with eight fundamentals. We also compute the Seib erg-Witten curves for non-Lagrangian theories with a symmetric hypermultiplet, which includes the local P-2 theory with an adjoint.
