Nature Aquarium Guide (Takashi Amano Style)

The philosophy and techniques behind the Nature Aquarium style pioneered by Takashi Amano.

The Nature Aquarium philosophy

Pioneered by Takashi Amano, the Nature Aquarium recreates natural landscapes underwater, emphasising balance between plants, fish, bacteria and light.

Key techniques

Use natural materials, asymmetric layouts and lush carpets. CO2, strong lighting and regular maintenance keep plants pristine. Amano shrimp and small schooling fish complete the scene.
