JManrow Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 So sorry to hear of his passing. I first learned of Takashi Amano 20 years ago, when his book "Nature Aquarium World: How You Can Make A Most Beautiful Aquarium" was published in 1994. I often discussed his work with both beginner hobbyists, and advanced aquarists in my years of retail sales with tropical fish and aquariums. His contributions to the hobby, and inspirational aquascaping will long be remembered. http://amanotakashi.net/bio/index.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Higher Thinking Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 Yeah, that dude was so amazing with his work. Like anyone else, I've always been a fan since first being exposed to his work and ideas. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
