I got to see him earlier this year before he started his procedures, he's such a great guy and full of knowledge. I swear every time he speaks he emits pure wisdom

That is a great interview Art. He's a true artist and a great ambassador for the hobby. I really enjoyed hearing his thoughts on the hobby and his aquascapes.

I remember picking up a copy of TFH back in 2008 (I still have it) because the cover story was titled "The Worlds Best Planted Tanks" The story was based on the IAPLC top rankings for 2007 and there was Felipe's treescape coming in at #10, amongst much larger tanks.

At the time it was very unique and original, these days it's been copied a thousand times, but it always struck me as groundbreaking back then.
