Default October 2007 Tank of the Month - Dan Pellegrini

APC proudly presents October's Tank of the Month - 72 gal 'Contrasts' by Dan Pellegrini (Dapellegrini).



October 2007 Tank of the Month - "Contrasts"

"I was it bit burned out with the Aquarium hobby. Scrubbing the glass, taking out the plants because they had died, and constant battle with Black Beard Algae wore me out. I basically got to the point where I was either going to do away with the tank, or make some big changes." - Dan Pellegrini

You can find the complete details of Pellegrini's aquascape in our Library: October 2007 Tank of the Month - Dan Pellegrini.

** We're always looking for the next TOTM. If you see an aquascape you think should be featured, please submit your nominations in the Tank of the Month Nomination Forum. Your post will only be visible to the APC staff and you may nominate yourself. **

Please join me in congratulating Dan Pellegrini on his perseverance to create this beautiful aquascape and making October's TOTM.

-John N.

I love tanks that are bold enough to use red plants and pull it off nicely. Great job!

Very nice!!! congrats. Did you experience lots of algae problems using 100% eco-complete in the begining. I know it is a very nutrient rich substrate?
