						I went there today and picked up a fish. Honestly the fish store is so aesthetic, I feel like I can just take a seat and just watch the tanks. Great quality fish and any question that I asked the owner, he provided me. He is extremely knowledgeable and can definitely steer you in the right direction. WILL DEFINITELY BE BACK!! Customer service 10/10 so great and I even asked if they were hiring 🤣

3 Unique Aquarium Design Ideas for Your Lloyd Harbor, NY Home

Did you know that nearly 15 million American households own fish? It’s true! Given the fact that aquarium design is a fun and interesting way to add visual interest to a home, combined with the therapeutic benefits (they’re calming and have been found to reduce stress levels), it’s easy to see why so many people have fish tanks.

If you’ve been thinking about bringing fish into your Suffolk County home, rather than going with a run-of-the-mill, do-it-yourself pet store fish tank, if you really want to make a bold statement, consider having a professional Lloyd Harbor, NY aquarium service create and install a custom aquatic habitat for you instead.

Here are some unique and amazing aquarium design ideas that a professional can create that will be sure to delight.

A Bathtub Aquarium

No, we don’t mean turning your bathtub into a fish tank (though it’s certainly possible and would be neat if you have an antique or unusual tub that you don’t intend on using); rather, by a bathtub aquarium, we mean having a tank installed near your tub. A Lloyd Harbor, NY aquarium service can design and install an oversized – or even a floor-to-ceiling tank – on the wall across from your bathtub. Watching colorful aquarium fish swim around and hearing the bubbling of the tank while you’re soaking in warm water will certainly take the relaxation factor that taking a bath provides up a notch.

A Headboard Aquarium

Aquarium watching has been shown to reduce stress, lower blood pressure levels, and create a calming effect; all factors that can help you get a better night of sleep. Sure, setting up a standard fish tank in your Suffolk County bedroom would be beneficial, but imagine the effect if your headboard was the tank? A professional Lloyd Harbor, NY aquarium service can install a tank in the wall above the head of your bed and fill it with vibrant fish, coral, and aquatic plants, and illuminate it with a blue, purple, or black light. Flank the tank with custom, built-in shelving, and this unique aquarium design and you’ll have a functional and beautiful piece of living furniture that will be sure to make your bedroom more inviting, and that will create a calming sleep environment.

The above are just some of the unique aquarium design ideas to consider, and at Fluid Dynamics International, our team of extraordinarily talented and thoughtful professionals can create a one-of-a-kind custom aquatic habitat that will be sure to add visual interest and that will add a sense of relaxation to your Suffolk County home.

An Aquarium Table

Glass-top tables aren’t unusual; however, rather than a wood or metal base, make a real statement with a fish tank! With this type of aquarium design, the options are virtually limitless. Experienced and talented Lloyd Harbor, NY aquarium service experts can turn fish tanks of all shapes and sizes into a table base. When topped with a thick piece of glass, you’ll have a 360-degree view of the aquarium fish, aquatic flora, and decorative elements in the tank. A coffee table, a side table, a dining table; no matter the type, the style, or how it’s used, an aquarium table will surely add visual appeal to your Suffolk County home, and will undoubtedly serve as a conversation piece.

Lloyd Harbor is a village in the Town of Huntington in Suffolk County, on the North Shore of Long Island, in New York, United States. As of the 2010 census, the village’s population was 3,660.

In 1654, the Matinecock Native Americans sold 3,000 acres (12 km²) of what is now called Lloyd Neck to English settlers from Oyster Bay. The Matinecock referred to the region as Caumsett (“place by sharp rock”). In 1676, James Lloyd acquired the neck, which was then taken over by his son Henry. Henry Lloyd farmed the land and erected a house, which still survives in Caumsett State Park. After his death in 1763, his son Joseph built the Joseph Lloyd Manor House, which he was forced to abandon by the British during the Revolutionary War. The British built several fortifications in the neck, including Fort Franklin. Henry Lloyd IV was the last Lloyd to own the estate, in 1841. In the 1880s, it became a stop for steamboats coming from New York City, bringing tourists and wealthy New Yorkers.

In 1886, Lloyd’s Neck, which was then part of the town of Oyster Bay and had earlier been known as Queens Village, was set off and separated from Queens County and annexed to the town of Huntington in Suffolk County.

The 1900s ushered the era of the Long Island Gold Coast, and various wealthy families began to buy land and build seaside mansions and estates. These included William Matheson, Marshall Field III, Ronald Conklin, Harold Dimppel, Sr., Ferdinand Eberstadt and George McKesson. In 1926, Lloyd Neck and West Neck became incorporated as a municipality which was named Lloyd Harbor.

FAQ

How Often Should I Service My Aquarium?

You should perform a partial water change in your fish tank around once every two to three weeks, or more often if you have a lot of fish. If you have to change all of the water in your fish tank completely (a full water change), only do it when it is absolutely necessary.

How Many Years Does An Aquarium Last?

Glass tanks typically last between 15 and 20 years if they are made of quality materials. A high-end glass tank can last more than 25 years if properly maintained.

How Often Should I Vacuum My Gravel?

You should vacuum your aquarium regularly, whether once a week or once every other week, as part of a good maintenance routine. Ensure that all your decor is removed before vacuuming.

Is It Okay To Change The Water In My Aquarium Every Day?

You can change water as often as you like if you dechlorinate properly and keep the temperature constant. Water may be changed daily by professional fish breeders to remove excess food and promote maximum growth.
