  1. Why we love Fish

  2. Fishkeeping According to studies conducted in America, aquarium fish are the second most popular pet in the U.S. with more than 7.4 million American households keeping aquarium fish. Ever since the world’s first public fish tank was exhibited in 1853, America and the rest of the world have become obsessed with aquariums and fish.

  3. Have you ever wondered why aquariums and aquarium fish are such a success in America and other countries? Here are five reasons why:

  4. Therapeutic effectsResearch studies have shown that aquariums have therapeutic effects. This was proven by researchers from Purdue University who studied the effects of showing aquariums with colorful fish to Alzheimer’s patients, and found that both their behavior and eating habits changed. The study showed that those who had contact with aquariums and fish were more relaxed, alert and were eating more food than before.

  5. Stress reliefMany people feel stressed because they have tight schedules to keep and a ton of things to do at home, at school and at work. Regular looking at an aquarium causes blood pressure to go down helping you to calm your nerves. The calmness, silence and motions of aquarium fish have a soothing effect on any stressed-out person. What are you likely to find in the waiting room of a doctor’s office or a dentist’s office? An aquarium, of course! Fish tanks are used by doctors to reduce patients’ anxiety.

  6. Good for childrenIf you have a hyperactive child, fishkeeping is the calming solution you’ve been looking for. Fish tanks are also a great way to help children get better grades at school. Studies have actually shown that students who have aquarium fish at home tend to perform better in math and oral exams than their peers with no pets or aquarium.

  7. Both parents and teachers can use a fish tank and aquarium fish to teach their children to appreciate and care for the nature. It is also an effective way to reduce the fear of animals in children. A fish tank will also foster your children’s creativity if you allow them to help you set it up. By assigning chores to children, such as feeding the fish, you will also teach them discipline.

  8. DecorationAn aquarium is a beautiful addition to every home and any other venue displaying fish as a decoration. With the right lighting and appealing decor, your home will be sure to inspire envy from your friends.

  9. HarmonyAs fish swim in water, they make no sounds at all. That way, you can have a pet and enjoy peace and harmony at the same time. Unlike cats, fish don’t meow. Animals have always been considered man’s companions. Compared to other pets, the benefits of keeping aquarium fish are very high.

  10. If you don’t believe it, get an aquarium, and enjoy the five reasons why aquarium fish are great pets to keep instead of a dog or cat. Fishkeeping is fantastic!
