I need a quote from someone and woud really appreciate it people can give me their reason why reef and fish aquariums are a great hobby and why you choose it. If i choose your post I will private message you to get your name so I can put it in works cited. I would really apprecaite it!

If you got to a pet store theres always someone looking at the fish. Cant say that about reptiles, small animals and birds

Keeping a reef aquarium helps us learn biology, chemistry, physics, hydrology, life science, math, social science, environmental studies, engineering, conflict resolution and so much more. Simultaneous, this hobby also encourages a sense of community, volunteerism, brings the wonder of nature into our homes, and lowers stress levels. Simply put - the reefing hobby creates the space for the world to be a little better.

I think Peace River had a great response, and I would add, specifically and from a biological standpoint, that in researching and observing both freshwater and saltwater animals (particularly Tanganyikan cichlids and a small reef consisting of little fish and various corals and other inverts), aquarium keeping has immensely broadened my understanding of inter-species relationships, evolutionary adaptation, and speciation. A thoughtfully stocked reef tank underscores the dynamism of evolution in a spectacular way.

+1 to Peace River's statement as well. Was going to say the same thing, but in a far less well said way.

We often watch the ocean on TV and observe the various forms of life it offers and there is no better way to view it than right in front of you within your home viewing various crustaceans walking along the sea bed, or a coral opening and closing and a clown fish taking a bath within a sea anemone.
The therapeutic level and destressers it offers is of no comparison to any form of therapy around

Thank you for a great post!

Have really enjoyed this hobby but never realized all the components involved.

Appreciate the succinct and insightful answer!

Aquariums calm frayed nerves and provide a sense of tranquility— which is why you will so often find them in doctor, dentist, and lawyer’s waiting rooms.
