Default July 2007 Tank of the Month - Michaël Leroy

Blazing through the summer series, APC presents July's Tank of the Month - 'Nature is Bleeding' by Michaël Leroy (Kirua 666).



"The tank doesn't represent a true Nature Tank or a Dutch tank, but is a combination of the two styles. I had the idea to let the plants grow to the surface to accentuate the blood effect that I sought." - Michaël Leroy

Please find the complete details of Leroy's aquascape in our Library: July 2007 Tank of the Month - Michael Leroy.

**A special thanks to APC's own Guaiac_Boy who has hit the ground running as our new moderator for the Aquascaping forum. In his new capacity, he is also in charge as the TOTM editor, and needs your help selecting the next Tank of the Month. Please submit your nomination in the Tank of the Month Nomination Forum. Your post will only be visible to the APC staff and you may nominate yourself.

In the meantime, please join me in a round of applause for Michaël Leroy and his July's Tank of the Month artistic masterpiece: "Nature is Bleeding."

-John N.

Very interesting technique.
The schooling Cardinals really makes it for me.
Is that a little plant growing on top of the driftwood. Looks neat.
