Living room decoration
It certainly decorates our living room if any aquarium is displayed naturally with colourful fishes called the living jewels. We teach our children about the nature by showing the planted aquarium. Other pet animals may create some sound and spoil sometimes our peace and harmony but fishes are considered as soundless creature and maintain silence.

It has been seen that watching aquarium fishes reduces blood pressure. Interestingly enough, greater reduction in blood pressure occurred when there were fish in the tank, vs pleasingly decorated. Even watching a video film on various colourful fishes has been proven to have therapeutic effects.

It's beautifully written story. I think so too. Fish are live, and seeing them swimming has always been somehow special thing for human. There's a lot of symbolism in the colorful fish too.
