AquaticGames Mission
Providing Enrichment Feeding to Marine Life
Aquatic Games mission is to provide behavioral enrichment feeding devices for captive aquatic animals (pet fish) for both public and private sectors.
Behavioral enrichment is an animal husbandry principle that seeks to enhance the quality of captive animal care by providing the environmental stimuli necessary for optimal psychological and physiological well-being. In other words, by providing a challenging feeding experience aquatic animals well-being is improved. This challenge is what Marine Biologist call “Enrichment Feeding”.
“Behavioral enrichment, also called
environmental enrichment, is an animal husbandry principle that seeks to enhance the quality of
captive animal care by identifying and providing the environmental stimuli necessary for optimal psychological and physiological well-being” – Shepardson 1998
Aquariums and Aquarists
FinBall Innovative Solution
Acording to the American Pet Products Association (APPA), there are approximentaly 15 million households in the United States alone with pet fish. And a recent survey by APPA showed that Fish owners had the youngest average age.
The FinBall will be marketed towards professional Aquariums and home Aquarists. By marketing the FinBall as a game for your pet the chore of feeding your fish daily now becomes fun! Children will be more inclined to participate in the feeding process if feeding becomes a game.
FinBall is the first of its kind
Ready for Market
A recent Nielsen survey conducted by Harris Poll indicated that $60 million per year is spent on fish food.
The FinBall is the first of its kind and has no competitors. It will provide a behavior enrichment feeding experience for marine life in any aquatic environment. Currently, captive marine life is feed by putting the food directly into the water or the animal’s mouth. The Finball device needs to be engaged or played with in order for the food to come out thus providing an enrichment challenge.
