Default December 2007 Tank of the Month - Erik Ostrander


Folks, it's true, great things come in small "nano" packages! APC proudly presents December's Tank of the Month - "A Petite Forest" by Erik Ostrander (Apistaeasy).



A Petite Forest

"I believe aquariums are a way to artistically express ones perspective on nature." - Erik Ostrander

You can find the complete details of Ostrander's hand built nano tank and aquascape in our Library: December 2007 Tank of the Month - Erik Ostrander.

*** Folks, we need your help. 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 Erik Ostrander for facilitating a beautifully crafted nano aquascape and making December's TOTM.

-John N.

Looks good. I've never had to much luck building my own tanks.

How long have you had the tank set up for?
