BLACKSBURG, Va., Sept. 4, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Tetra®
Brand of Spectrum Brands Pet LLC has added and enhanced several new
features to the latest version of the My Aquarium app, helping
fishkeepers and seasoned hobbyists learn more about their favorite
fish, what they need to thrive and the best way to set up
aquariums.
"We want to give fishkeepers the ideal resource to
simplify the hobby — from setup to feeding to maintenance," said
John Pailthorp, Vice President of
Marketing at Spectrum Brands Pet. "With the new helpful features in
the My Aquarium app at their fingertips,
consumers can now set up their tanks more successfully depending on
their fish species and environment."
The My Aquarium app's new
features include:
- Aquarium Setup Guidance: Consumers
can start their aquatic journeys off right by building their
aquariums based on fish type or aquarium type. By selecting the
type of aquarium they're building (for example, Goldfish, Cichlid,
Marine or Reef), the app will provide guidance and recommendations
to help them maintain the healthiest possible aquarium.
- Tankmate Recommendations: Since not
all fish play well together, the My Aquarium app provides species
information to help consumers determine ideal tankmates as they add
fish to their aquarium.
- Aquarium Capacity Recommendations: To
keep water quality balanced and healthy, the My Aquarium app also
identifies if there are "too many" or "not enough" of a species in
an aquarium so fishkeepers have the ideal amount of
fish.
- Food Recommendations: To ensure fish
get the nutrients they need to be vibrant and healthy, the My
Aquarium app provides food recommendations.
These enhancements complement the app's existing features
that help simplify water care and testing, set helpful
reminders and keep track of products. The My Aquarium
app also puts consumers one tap away from Tetra Brand's Customer
Service website page if they need help with the app or Tetra
products, or have general fish questions.
"The ultimate goal of the My Aquarium
app is to act as a go-to source for fishkeeping
answers so consumers can focus less on the details and more on
enjoying this rewarding hobby," Pailthorp
said.
The My Aquarium app is free and available on Android,
Apple and Amazon phones.
