We will miss you master 🙁
 
Saw this on fb this morning, had to come here to double check. Sad news 🙁
 
Its really disappointing to know that a legend who not only inspired me but a lot of people around the world is no more. :cry:
Amano San, you'll always stay in our hearts and be deeply missed everytime I look at a scape.

RIP
 
A very sad day for his family and for all of us !!
His work have inspire the hobby and he can be proud of what he has achieved in his life for his passion.
He will be miss but we will still get inspire by his work and still thinking about this great man.

RIP master
 
Such a great shame and loss to more than just aquascaping; made all the more tragic since he was only 61. I think that perhaps he'd been coping with illness for sometime and suspect that pneumonia was a secondary disease.
