About Japanese aquarium (Japanese natural aquarium, aquarium Takashi Amano), a mysterious and attractive, like all Japanese, one way or another, heard, perhaps many. In recent years, many promotional materials on the subject of decorative aquarium in the interior, willingly use the term to attract potential customers. Japanese aquarium - a small model of the world, organized by subject known to mankind the fundamental laws and principles that derive natural processes. In the graphic part of the Japanese Aquarium - an underwater landscape, the landscape created with the use of thousands of living plants, artistically combined with other natural objects - fish, invertebrates, stones, driftwood -to integral work, which has the name of the plot and has the characteristics of an object of art. < br />
The biological part is -gramotno balanced and finely tuned steady biogeocoenosis. It is created exclusively from natural materials, and each element performs its natural function. The ratio of plant and animal parts of the tank - an important characteristic for the ecological balance of the system and for the perception of the work of art.





A bit of history
The basis of the well-known concept of a wider audience was the concept of a Japanese aquarium Nature Aquarium (Natural Aquarium), designed and proposed in the late twentieth century, the famous photographer and a landscape akvadizaynerom Takashi Amano (b. 1954, Japan). Takashi Amano and led them «Aqua Design Amano Co.» (Niigata, Japan) as a result of research of water and water-related systems of equatorial America, Asia and Africa had a unique knowledge of the biological, chemical and physical processes that determine the livelihoods of natural ecosystems. On the basis of the knowledge developed by a wide range of products - nutrient soils, specific lighting, funds for the care of water, other accessories. With the help of this has been to create the most comfortable and the relevant requirements of the natural aquatic environment under the conditions of the aquarium. Only then will the opportunity to work with real artistic objects, in this case, the Japanese experts have developed and proposed methods and methods of forming highly aesthetic composition of the aquarium and have developed procedures and methods of care for her. Initially working Amano were artistically designed assotsiomy author on the subject of underwater seen paintings - combinations of objects animate and inanimate nature. In the future, thanks to the work of many followers of the imaging range of lenses expanded aquarium, has become more fantasy and far away from copying nature. Therefore, in recent years, many experts, including the author of this article seems to be correct to use the concept more fully cover various topics aquarium complex composition, including those that are not always detail
copy the natural underwater world. Thus was born the term aquascape, literally - "water landscape", "water landscape". At the same time, technical and, so to speak, the ideological basis of work in the genre aquascape is still the concept of the Japanese natural aquarium «Nature Aquarium». When people talk about the work aquascape, I mean, of course, the aquarium complex composition, created exclusively from natural materials.



Japanese boom in decorative aquariums and fashion is the use of Japanese management concept for the interior of the tank are connected primarily with the two phenomena. Firstly, to the twenty-first century, every prop, imitation and counterfeiting in the formation of aquarium space for the interior, especially the elite, with few exceptions, is becoming obsolete as the ideological and technical. And secondly, is finally going disengagement in the minds of the majority of customers, adhere to two basic concepts of aquatic systems and, consequently, their assignments: a) public, exposure (a zoo, aquarium, etc.), Did not initially assumes a constant presence in the environment human habitation, operates the largest and exotic shapes and combinations of objects. And b) the interior, suggesting increased requirements for direct aesthetic characteristics, more "chamber" and elegant, while involving the possibility of the coexistence comfortable long-tence of a man in his environment.



For a wider audience, we note the following general points.
• The size and shape of the aquarium to create harmonious compositions are determined, above all, taking into account the artistic design for the future composition of the interior features, and last but not least, the project budget (drawing "alive" colors - relatively expensive lesson). Internationally accepted practice of professional aqua aquascape operates in the genre, as a rule, simple forms of aquariums (usually a box), allowed a slight curve of the front glass. The height of the water column is typically less than 50 cm: it is connected with the peculiarities of the organization of the lighting system (usually - skylight), the specifics of light penetration into the aquatic environment, ease of working with constant composition.
You are unlikely to see anywhere in the world of multi-ton tank with a harmonious living and highly artistic landscape of his glasses. Usually in large containers it is possible to include only a very primitive composition, with a great deal of fake items, or simply bright and exotic aquatic species: fish, invertebrates - it is much easier and cheaper, which is important for the consumer.



• Look-depth or, as they say, the width of the "serious" aquarium usually equal to or greater than the height. The more space to work with the prospect, the easier it is to the author to create an impressive bulk composition. An important requirement - matching the size of the illuminated aquarium lighting dimensions of space: in the aquarium should not be worked skylight areas. If the aquarium is technically closed type - cover it should provide easy access into the interior space, it is desirable - with the full coverage.
• Used for water is usually mild, with an acidic reaction. For many regions
Ukraine, this entails the need for special water treatment - chemical or physical.
• Basis vigorous plant growth Japanese aquarium is not only a "correct" water which contains all the macro and micronutrients in the composition of certain chemical compounds, but also a system of nutrient soil, which usually consists of black soil, peat, clay and so forth.



• Aquatic systems are equipped with devices for continuous filtration and regular provision of carbon dioxide. Substitution of water - up to half the total weekly. Normal service - 1-2 times a week.
Those who wish to become the owner of a Japanese aquarium in your own interior, but is not an expert in the field of aqua, we can say the following.
1. Since the Japanese aquarium - is, above all, high aesthetics, based on the most modern aquarium technology and design achievements, which requires a certain level of sophistication of the author-creator, so it is better and more correct to entrust its organization specialist with the necessary professional biological and that is very important , design preparation.
2. If you are willing to devote part of his life the magic practice of creating beautiful water worlds, begin to learn, to experiment, to penetrate into the subtleties of the interaction of the natural elements and the elements, increase "permission" own imagination, perception and sensitivity - nothing is impossible, and after a certain time ( usual - a few years later), you and most likely will be able to create a fusion of precious natural and man-made beauty and harmony - its own Japanese aquarium.
