Please join me in offering a hearty congrats to Dave (dm.67) in winning with July Photo Contest with his fabulous picture of his biotope tank. Dave liberally took the contest by almost a landslide. Congrats Dave for winning and I will contact via pm for contact information.

Congrats indeed, quite a sight to come home to everyday no doubt.

Congratz... That's is my dream tank setup... Amazing... I hope you share the info on where you got that nice 3d background there.

I don't understand how photos 2, 3, 4, and 5 can even be considered biotope tanks. However, the photo 6 is a deserving winner. Congrats. Nice fish, Pat (I think). :)

[Second Hand Pat]

Biotope means different things to different people I presume Yun. Again congrats Dave. :D

Pat if I may ask? I believe photo 4 is yours? If so that is one cute looking wild discus.

Hi All

Thanks for all the congratulatory messages, a big thanks to everyone who voted for my photo and well done to everyone else who entered as well. I get a lot of pleasure out of my tank and its nice to see other people appreciating it too, so I was really pleased to get so many votes.

Hi Kal-El the back ground was made by a Swedish firm called Back to Nature. I think they have been taken over by a German company now as the founder sadly died not so long ago. I didn't get it direct from Sweden I got it from a LFS in the UK, called Universal Waterlife in Widnes. Back to Nature don't seem to have a US distributor on their website, so if you wanted one, you would have to liaise with them direct or perhaps one of the other distributors. Here's their website if you want to look around it:

Thanks again.
