Give your child the opportunity to become both a scientist and a young entrepreneur in this one-of-a-kind hands-on aquarium experience! Each ticket includes everything needed to build and take home a fully functioning freshwater aquarium, complete with the tank, equipment, décor, water conditioner, fish food, and a carefully selected breeding pair of fish. As families build the aquarium together, they'll learn about the nitrogen cycle, water chemistry, responsible animal care, and how healthy aquatic ecosystems work. Over the following weeks and months, children will observe fish behavior, learn about the life cycle through natural breeding, and experience the responsibility of caring for living animals. It's an engaging STEM-based learning experience that brings biology, ecology, and responsibility to life right in their own home. The adventure doesn't end there! When the fish have healthy offspring, Florals N Fins will purchase the baby fish back from participating families (when appropriate for the species and health standards). Kids earn money for the fish they helped raise, giving them their first taste of running a small business while helping supply healthy, locally raised fish for our store. Optional upgrades are available for lighting, live plants, decorative hardscape, premium fish, and advanced equipment for families who want to expand their underwater world. Includes the following: Aquarium Heater Sponge Filter Decor Substrate Pair of Live Fish
