Beyond their aesthetic appeal, small aquariums significantly impact household dynamics. They introduce children to the wonders of aquatic life and foster a sense of responsibility as they learn about caring for these living creatures. Watching the tranquil movements of fish and the gentle sway of aquatic plants has a calming effect, reducing stress and encouraging a moment of pause in our busy schedules. In addition, the continuous maintenance and upkeep of an aquarium can serve as a therapeutic practice, providing a sense of accomplishment and satisfaction.
The leap into fishkeeping began with the need for a biologist at a major wholesaler in Belgium. Dr Bassleer had no prior knowledge of treating fish diseases; his introduction started with a simple microscope and a will to learn from every resource available. Despite initially not being a hobbyist, his professional role necessitated a deep understanding of fish pathologies, behaviours, and care. Need birthed fascination, and Dr. Bassleer found a vocation soon to be etched in his daily life.
