For those interested in discussions of Biotope Aquaria, here is a person
running a discussion board.

Hey Erik, my name is Ron (a.k.a. skylsdale) and I am a moderator for a
freshwater biotope forum on the UBB Aqualink, which is actually based out
of Seattle.  I have visitied theKrib many times, as well as perused the
GSAS website.

I'm not sure whether or not you have heard of or even visited Aqualink,
but it is a great place for fellow hobbiests share problems, info, and
experiences with aquaria.  It is NOT a commercial site.  Just recently we
were able to add a biotope forum for those people who are into the
"details" of aquarium keeping--myself being one of them.  It's only a
couple weeks old, but some of the response has been fantastic.  It gives
some of the veterans a new challenge, and helps the newbies understand
some of the conditions their fish actually came from and thrive under.  
But, traffic is a bit slow and information is extremely sparse on this
sort of subject.  That is why I'm contacting you.

I was wondering if, through your involvement in the GSAS, you know of
anyone who keeps biotope-specific tanks, and if they wouldn't mind sharing
with me about their tanks or even sending pics for others to see?  They
are more than welcome to jump on board at Aqualink as well if they wish.  
I'm not sure if you know anyone doing this, but just thought I would drop
you a line.  Thanks

Oh yeah, just in case you want to check the place out, here's the link:
