Can anyone point me towards a good site for pictures of really well aquascaped tanks, especially those set up by Takashi Amano? I'm getting a tank soon and want to aquascape it and I want to get as much reference images to base my ideas on as possible!

Cheers,

Daniel
 
Yes, check out Leopardess's tanks if you want to see some nice aqua-scaping.

Daniel, when you're ready to start setting things up, let us know and we'll give you some pointers toward a good start.
Then plant heavily with a variety of plants and see what grows for you. What you can grow might look like you know what in my tank. And plants look somewhat different in pictures than when you plant them at home. Finding out what will grow and what you like is an important first step.
Amano's stuff looks great, but he has access to plants and equipment that the average person can't even imagine. It's unfair to judge your creations against his, so don't be disappointed at first.
You'll develop your own style.

Thanks for all the links and advice, I'm getting my tank tonight. Its a 2 foot tank from a friend who has just got a 4ft tank and does not want his old 2ft one anymore :)
