Hey,
You're very welcome maxqnz. This is another one of my obsessions, er rather hobbies. Have been doing it for 20 something years. Watching an aquarium is proven to lower your blood pressure and relax you. A planted aquarium just looks so much more beautiful. It's an art form. I'll post some other nice links if there's an interest.

Sure, why not? Maybe we could get our own "fish channel" going.  Grin

Hey,  
I'm glad you liked them Claire, I certainly enjoy your incredible space pics. Here's some pictures from the Master of the other style.
http://www.adana.co.jp/gallery.html
 It seems aquascaping is defined as either Dutch style or Amano style. Myself I think natural biotope, plants and fish all from a specific geographical location, to- I put these plants and fish together from all over the world and look how nice it is(I'm glad the fish didn't eat the plants) are all categories or different styles to themselves. Even flourescent plants and castles under blacklights should be considered a distinct style, but alas aquascaping experts would probably disagree and dismiss them as they don't have there own contest. I'll add Amano's web site but it doesn't contain all his pictures because he publishes them in his books. I have some awesome pictures in the book  but even if I could figure out how to add them to this post I think it would infringe copyright stuff which I will not do.
Regards, DC
Here is Amano's site http://www.vectrapoint.com/main/photo/aquascape/aquascape.html
