The life of a IT technician can get hectic, not that we’re complaining. We find great joy in providing valuable IT services to our clients. Sometimes the job can get stressful and upon hearing the therapeutic benefits of having an aquarium, we decided to put one in our Hackensack, NJ office. We thought it was so neat, we’ve decided to set up a 24 x 7 fish cam that broadcasts our aquarium onto our website.

There are numerous benefits of having a fish tank, including reducing stress, anxiety, and even blood pressure. There are several official medical and psychological articles written on the subject. In fact, a joint study conducted by the National Marine Aquarium, Plymouth University, and the University of Exeter, that was published in Environment & Behavior, suggests that the longer someone observes the aquatic movements in an aquarium, the lower their heart rate and blood pressure becomes, while significantly improving mood.

For this reason, we’ve decided to share our fish tank with you. We have a button that will allow you to toggle the light on and off, and a button that will allow users to turn on the underwater volcano.

Having an aquarium is a great way to bring the beauty and tranquility of the underwater world into your home. Aquariums have been shown to have a number of benefits for both physical and mental health. Watching fish swim can be relaxing and therapeutic, helping to reduce stress and anxiety. Aquariums can also be a great way to teach children about marine life and the importance of caring for animals.

Here are some additional benefits of having an aquarium:

  • Improved sleep: The calming effect of watching fish swim can help you relax and fall asleep more easily.
  • Increased productivity: Studies have shown that having an aquarium in the workplace can increase productivity and creativity.
  • Reduced blood pressure and heart rate: Watching fish swim can have a calming effect on the body, which can lead to lower blood pressure and heart rate.
  • Improved mood: Spending time watching fish can help to reduce stress and anxiety, which can lead to an overall improvement in mood.
  • Educational opportunities: Aquariums can be a great way to teach children about marine life and the importance of caring for animals.
  • Aesthetic appeal: Aquariums can add a beautiful and unique element to any home.

Overall, having an aquarium can be a great way to improve your physical and mental health. If you are considering getting an aquarium, be sure to do your research to make sure you are prepared to care for your fish properly.
