New Takashi Amano Bio: An Aquarium Life
If there is a formula to Amano’s success as an artist, I believe it is this: He was born with a deep love for the wildest, purest, and most primeval expressions of nature and constantly immersed himself in the heart of this inspiration.

Takashi Amano - Aesthetic Guide, Spiritual Father, Inspirational Human Being
Yesterday, I learned of the passing of the world’s greatest aquarium aquascaper, Takashi Amano, I am still in shock and stunned by the magnitude of this loss. He was an aesthetic guide, a spiritual father, and a purely inspirational human being for many aquarists like myself.

Please sign this to support common sense rules in Florida. Ask Fish and Wildlife not to use an ill-advised whitelist of animals that can be kept. All you need to do is add your name to the following statement, "A viable option I support would be a list of prohibited species, which would be a much smaller, manageable and enforceable list than one that attempts to encompass all allowed species. " https://petadvocacy.org/advocacy-campaigns?vvsrc=%2FPetitions%2F3902%2FRespondBryce David says:
To whom it may concern, A whitelist approach to regulating which species are legally allowed to be obtained and traded will decimate fish farms and pet stores. This is not a well thought out approach for combating invasive species release into ecosystems. Best Management Practices have already made inroads on preventing the release of foreign invader species. I suggest a review of those practices and amend them if they are deemed to be insufficient. Sincerely, Bryce DavidEdward Moats says:
I urge you to consider the ramifications of losing a 172 million dollar industry in your state. I completely support the black list and agree that invasive species is a big concern. However , I feel that this bill is over reaching and will have a negative impact not only On the industry , but to Florida’s economy.
