Sean is looking into that. I think Amano is bringing some items with him - remember Sean saying someing along those lines. He's arranged for a plant import license of some sort to allow Jan and Amano to bring along some plants with them. Don't know the exact details of that just yet. One thing to consider though is that a lot of the plants from nurseries are grown emersed and the aquascape he produces would probably look a LOT better with plants that have been grown submerged. In addition, a lot of the plants he's seen using in his aquascapes are not available from the nurseries anyway.

I think someone should check with him and see what he wants.
