Do Not Mess With Fish 122,

and you thought fish were fun! well George Farmer, one of a group of aquarium designers does, they are the work of UK enthusiasts, calling themselves Aqueous Art Movement, the aquariums use a minimal number of small fish to keep biological waste to a minimum and are aquascaped to look pleasing to the eye, I was so surprised when I saw the pictures, to think that fish keeping had made the national press,
this style of decoration became very popular in Japan many years ago but this part of the hobby is growing much more in popularity in the UK, the man credited with developing this style is from Niigata, Japan, Amano Takashi, he is a photographer who takes stunning pictures, as a bonus he also likes planted aquariums, so much so he developed a new system for fish keeping and set up stores all over the world under the ADA name, many times Joe and myself would travel to Bangkok to marvel at the ADA store there, so nice to see something other than computer games in the news.
