| Takashi Amano Galleries Hey everyone. I have been doing a lot of idolizing of Mr. Takashi Amano lately and I have stumbled upon some amazing pictures of his, so I thought I would share them here for everyone to see  . Feel free to add to the list if you have any others or find any more. Sites
1. MFT Article
2. Hemmy.net
3. Geocities site
4. Aquaristics page 1, page 2, page 3
Please note: I do not verify any authenticity of these websites- they might be pictures of John Doe's tanks for all I know... but I do know they are all beautiful and worth looking at.

| Thanks for posting this!
I've done some reading up on his setups in the past, and I always find myself gazing at them in awe. I very much would like to scape a tank along these lines someday---one of the 'simpler' setups with a foreground plant surrounding some rocks or driftwood with a large school of one type of fish.
Some very inspiring stuff!

| I feel the same way BV! I would love to do that! I am not sure how good it will look in the normal long narrow tank most people have, but it is always worth a try  .

| I love that stuff. Might have to make another purchase from the plant site. Better wait for the tax refund.
