i have a 8 foot long tank and watching the fishes swim back and forth is very relaxing. i use to have my water low and it would make a waterfall sound that would make me fall asleep. my dog would be my alarm clock and lick my feet to wake me up.
i have 3 tanks, i feed them all once a day. i do this at night right before bedtime.after feeding the last tank , i watch for a lil and then when i feel sleepy, i then turn off all the lights. basically, i use my tanks as a sleeping remedy, i guess when u look at them long enough, they put u to sleep
i do the same too, its just so peaceful watching your fishes swims and hearing the water falling in and bubbles bubbling,... very relaxing especially when you have a comfy couch sitting in front with a good view of your tank
After working all night in a kitchen, coming home and watching the fish tanks is the best thing for me to relax. If I try to go right to bed I dont sleep well at all. I need to move a tank into my room so I dont go with out watching it. Not to mention it blocks the outside noise.
I have a recliner in front my tank. Everyone in my family loves to sit on it and watch the aquarium but not the tv hahaha, Then I would always see them snoring. Took my spot!
