I have always admired people who drew nice pictures, who painted
beautifully. To
put together a lovely flower arrangement is an art. I have never been
artistically inclined and to see some of the aquariums on the web sites of
the
people who frequent this newsgroup is very inspiring. But no matter how I
arrange the plant in my fish tank it just doesn't look right.

I'm not so naive to think that art is something one can learn reading a
book or
a web site at the age of 39 but perhaps there are few basic rules of the
trade
which if fallowed will help people like me setup a planted aquarium which
will
be aesthetically pleasing to us.

Are there any books or web sites out there which talk about this subject
(not
just pictures...)?

Thanks in advance
