American Pet Products Association Highlights New Sleek and Serene Trends in Aquatics
Greenwich, CT (PRWEB) November 10, 2016 -- There are 79.7 million U.S. households with pets and of those, 13.6 million households own fish, according to the American Pet Products Association’s (APPA) National Pet Owners Survey. Not only do a majority of fish owners cite ‘fun to watch and have in the household’ as their number one reason for owning fish, but nearly half of all fish owners report ‘relaxation and stress relief’ as top benefits as well. Aquatic product manufacturers are introducing new technology and innovations to attract new hobbyists and encourage pet owners to take advantage of the positive benefits of having pet fish in the household. From adjustable lighting and mobile aquarium management to fish food technology and even new aquarium inhabitant trends, APPA is pleased to highlight these member innovations.
