Amano : The Complete Works

[ian]

I have just received my Amano : Complete works 85 - 09. It did cost £30, but it's well worth it, for the photography alone. Theres loads of interesting pieces written by the man himself. Things you wouldn't think he'd say...things like he sets up his scapes to last around 10 years!! Theres also a lot about his trips to see native plants as well.

heres the best price i have found...

a must buy for any serious planted tank keeper.

I've been eyeing this up for a few months, I think I might get it when I get paid, looks a good read.

It really is a good read, there's some surprising bits in it where he says that he really doesn't like tanks that are made to look to false and over complicated. Its a massive book, as i say well worth the money. I have already ordered a couple more plants thanks to Amano.

Assuming this is an english version then haha. Very tempted, but it will have to be on the back burner for a while, #41#### bills! Taking over my life

yes, it is in English. I decided to get it, as i have a couple of the Aqua journals and can't really justify paying £15 for a mag, when i can get the complete works for £30. The book has given me some ideas as well.
