You love your aquarium. It’s a focal point of your Nassau County home, it serves as a great conversation piece, and it just makes you feel happy and promotes a sense of calmness. Of course, it goes without saying that in order to ensure that this wonderful feature continues to thrive and provide all of the benefits that you enjoy, routine fish tank maintenance is an absolute must, and that includes regular cleaning. If the tank isn’t properly cleaned, not only will its visual appeal decline, but so will the health and well-being of your aquarium fish, and ultimately, your saltwater fish or saltwater fish could perish.

When it comes to aquarium cleaning, many people plan on or attempt to do the job themselves; however, the DIY approach isn’t ideal. If you want the best results possible, hiring a professional Plainview, NY aquarium service is highly recommended. Why? Here are three great reasons why you should hire a professional and experienced Nassau County aquarium cleaning professional.

Saves Time

Properly cleaning your Nassau County home aquarium can take a lot of time. The larger the tank, the more aquarium fish, and the more intricate the system, the more complicated the job will be, and the more time it’s going to take. Between taking care of your family and home, work, running errands, social engagements, and any other obligations you have to attend to, your time is already limited. With so much on your plate, trying to find the time to properly clean your aquarium can be hard. Plus, when you do have free time, do you really want to spend it cleaning an aquarium?

By hiring a Plainview, NY aquarium service, you won’t have to worry about rearranging your schedule or giving up several hours during the evening or over the weekend to tend to your tank. The amount of time you’ll save alone is enough of a reason to hire a professional aquarium cleaning crew.

Cost Savings

A lot of people assume that DIY aquarium cleaning is more cost-effective than hiring a professional; in reality, however, doing the job yourself can actually end up costing more. Properly cleaning an aquarium requires a lot of supplies, which you’ll need to purchase yourself. Those supplies can be pretty pricey. Plus, what happens if you purchase items that you don’t really need only to find that you can’t return them and have to purchase new products? Talk about unnecessary spending! You also have to consider what will happen if your efforts end up doing more harm than good; for instance, if you throw off the nitrogen cycle for aquariums or damage the tank or any of the components. You’ll have to pay even more to repair the damage, and you could harm – and ultimately kill – your aquarium fish (and it’s no secret that aquarium fish can be expensive, not to mention the fact that you’ll feel awful knowing that you harmed your beloved fish).

If you really want to keep costs down, hiring an aquarium cleaning professional is definitely the best bet. They’ll have the proper training and experience that the job requires, will have access to all of the necessary tools and equipment, and in the event that anything does go wrong, will be properly insured and will cover the cost of repairing damages or replacing fish. Plus, a reputable Plainview, NY aquarium service will charge fair and affordable prices.

Plainview is a hamlet and census-designated place (CDP) located near the North Shore of Long Island in the town of Oyster Bay in Nassau County, New York, United States. The population of the CDP as of 2010 was 26,217. The Plainview post office has the ZIP code 11803.

Plainview’s origins date to 1648, when Robert Williams, a settler from Wales, bought land in the area. The land was considered desirable for farming because of a small pond named the Moscopas by local Native Americans, meaning “hole of dirt and water”. The remainder of the land in the area was purchased by Thomas Powell in 1695 as part of the Bethpage Purchase. The name “Mannatto Hill” had already appeared on the 1695 deed of the Bethpage Purchase, and the settlement came to be called “Manetto Hill”. Manitou was the Native American word either for “god” or for “spirit”.

The 1837 arrival of the Long Island Rail Road to nearby Hicksville brought a boom to local farming. In 1885, residents of Manetto Hill petitioned the United States Postal Service for a local post office, but were turned down because, according to several accounts, a similar name was already in use upstate. The hamlet was then named “Plainview”, for the view of the Hempstead Plains from the top of the Manetto Hills.

Plainview remained a farming community, famous for growing cucumbers for the huge Heinz pickle factories located in nearby Farmingdale and Hicksville. In the early 1900s blight destroyed the cucumber crop and many farmers switched to potatoes. After World War II, a potato blight combined with the desire of many returning GIs to leave New York City for the more rural Long Island, convinced many farmers to sell their property, leading to massive development in the area, giving rise to so-called suburban sprawl. Between 1950 and 1960, the hamlet grew from a population of 1,155 to more than 35,000. Most of the available land was developed during this period or otherwise designated as parkland. While overall development declined it did continue sporadically as smaller remaining parcels of land were also developed. In recent years, some of the few large remaining parcels have given way to gated communities, which are in contrast to most housing in the area. Some of these developments include “The Hamlet on Olde Oyster Bay” and “The Seasons at Plainview”, a residential community focused on over age 55 residents and first time home buyers.
