An installation for the farming of fish is described and also a method to establish a water reservoir for the farming of the fish.

A facility for growing vegetation, the facility comprising at least one container for taking aquatic animals and/or aquatic organisms (2), at least one hydroponic part (13), at least one device for water and/or substance circulation (17) whereby the facility further comprises at least one unit (16) for distillation.

Provided are a power generation apparatus and an aquarium equipment. The power generation apparatus includes a water pump and a magnetic induction generator. The water pump includes a housing, a stator mounted in the housing, a first rotor assembly, and an impeller connected to the first rotor assembly. The first rotor assembly includes a first permanent magnet rotor and a first rotating shaft disposed at an axis of the first permanent magnet rotor. The first permanent magnet rotor is disposed adjacent to the stator. The magnetic induction generator is disposed adjacent to the stator or to the first permanent magnet rotor and is operative to be coupled to an electric device. The stator includes a coil winding operative to be coupled to an external power source, so that when the coil winding is coupled to an input alternating current, the first permanent magnet rotor rotates enabling the magnetic induction generator to generate an induced current to power up the electric device. The aquarium equipment includes the power generation apparatus described above.

Monitoring systems and methods for tracking movement of one or more animals in an enclosure, such as a fish tank, include introducing various stimuli, such as food, light, and auditory stimuli, and tracking the movement of the animals in response to these stimuli. Movement patterns of the animals can be determined and analyzed from data obtain from cameras that record images/videos of the relevant portions of the enclosure.

A climate controlled display cabinet includes a frame. A stationary shelf is coupled to the frame. A plurality of operable shelves is coupled to at least one of the frame and the stationary shelf. The operable shelves are moveable between open and closed positions. A heat source is in thermal communication with the stationary shelf and the plurality of operable shelves. At least one temperature sensor monitors a temperature of an area proximate the stationary shelf and the plurality of operable shelves.

Various embodiments of an aquarium and its method of use are disclosed. In some embodiments, the aquarium includes a first container for holding water and fish, plants, and/or other aquatic organism, a second container for collecting dirty water, and a passageway arranged to flush water from the first container to the second container. The passageway is in fluid communication with an outlet of the first container. The second container is arranged to receive the outlet such that fluid flows from the passageway, through the outlet, and into the second container. The outlet may be selectively opened by a user via a valve. Opening the valve causes gravity to flush water and debris from the first container, through the passageway, through the valve and into the second container, where the dirty water can be stored or discarded by disconnecting the second container from the aquarium ad dumping the dirty water.

A decorative stand assembly for combining a terrarium, an aquarium and a waterfall includes a terrarium for housing plant life. The terrarium has a plurality of first windows therein for viewing an interior of the terrarium. A waterfall housing is positioned on the terrarium and the waterfall housing has a plurality of second windows for viewing an interior of the waterfall housing. A pump is positioned within the waterfall housing to pump a fluid into the waterfall housing for simulating a waterfall. An aquarium is coupled to the waterfall housing to house fish.

A modular shelving system includes a plurality of shelves, each shelf having a length and defining a first passage, a second passage, a first channel, and a second channel that each extend the full length of their respective shelf. The system also includes a plurality of bars, each bar defining a length and including a first bar opening at a first end and a second bar opening at a second end opposite the first end, and a plurality of connectors, each connector including at least two male portions, each male portion sized and shaped to be received in one of the first passage, the second passage, the first bar opening, and the second bar opening to interconnect each of the plurality of shelves and each of the plurality of bars

The method for a skin treatment using a first snail on a human patient includes placing the first snail on a first surface to allow the first snail to attach itself to the first surface. The method further includes projecting a first predetermined amount of a first agent onto the first snail with to cause the first snail to secrete a liquid on the first surface. The method further includes administering the secreted liquid over a surface of a skin of a portion of a body of the human patient.

The present invention is directed to a habitat for housing either cold blooded animals, warm blooded animals or plants, and in particular it is directed to a habitat for housing cold blooded animals such as lizards including geckos and the like. The present habitat apparatus comprises a transparent terrarium in combination with a stand, the stand including a partition that provides a space to receive and nest the transparent terrarium within so a portion of the transparent terrarium is masked by the partition to create a secure zone within the interior space of the terrarium that is distinct from adjoining interior space.
