My name is Brad and my mission is to create and maintain peaceful spaces that showcase the beauty of Nature. I want to share my experience and passion for freshwater planted aquariums with my local community.
Studies have shown that aquariums can help reduce the stress and anxiety levels in people, especially neurodivergent individuals(such as ASD, ADHD, and SPD) and can also provide relaxing stimulation for those dealing with Alzheimer's, anxiety, or depression. Research suggests just 5-10 minutes in front of an aquarium can decrease heart rate and lower muscle tension.
I believe that by putting more planted fish tanks in waiting rooms, offices, homes and social spaces, we can create environments together that are special, relaxing, and more enriching experiences for everyone.
