About the Cover
Who can help but fall in love with the beauty of a lush green planted tank? Whether it is the elegant style of Takashi Amano’s Nature Aquariums (p. 56), a simple nano setup bursting with green (p. 46), or even an underwater garden designed for an executive’s office (p. 70), there is a planted aquarium to suit almost anyone’s taste. Even if you’re an aquatic-plant novice, this month we feature tips on aquascaping like a pro (p. 62). In this special issue we celebrate the art of the planted tank, and we hope it will inspire you to do some aquatic gardening of your own! Photograph by Takashi Amano

Tip of the Month:
That the splash tetra Copella arnoldi lays its eggs out of the water! The pair jumps out of the water and lay its eggs on the underside of an overhanging leaf. When spawning is over, the male splashes the eggs periodically to keep them wet. The fry fall into the water when they hatch.
