If you are in the process of opening your own restaurant, the plans that you use to set up the dining area will have a large impact on the atmosphere you create for your customers. If you are using a building that has smaller rooms, consider adding custom aquariums to add into your decor plans, giving your customers a unique experience every time they come to have dinner. There are several reasons why custom fish tanks work well in a dining establishment:

Helps Pass The Time

If you will be servicing many customers and wait times are a little longer than expected, having a focal point will help keep customers busy. Having several aquariums set up within your establishment will give many opportunities for customers to watch different sea life creatures up close while waiting for their meals.

Place a few aquariums in the waiting area, as well as a few to be seen from every table. Consider placing a larger custom-made aquarium in the middle of a wall that separates two rooms. The aquarium would be enjoyed by people on both sides of the wall, giving each room its own view of the inhabitants inside the tank.

Gives Education

While customers gaze at the aquariums within your restaurant they will be learning about the traits and habits of the fish within. Place a few rare fish in the aquariums to give them a conversation piece that they may be interested in learning more about when they leave the restaurant. 

Teach your staff the names of the fish along with a few interesting facts about each so that they can share this information with curious customers. Think about holding special deals for schools to come to your establishment for a meal while learning about different types of fish during their visit.

Sets The Mood

Walking into a restaurant containing aquariums will set the mood for a fun experience. Guests that have never been at your restaurant before will quickly get into the mindset that the meal will be relaxing and enjoyable. Watching the fish slowly swim around in their tanks helps release any anxiety felt, helping customers stay calm and peaceful. 

Seeing brightly colored fish will help boost the moods of your customers, helping them feel at ease as they look through your food selections. Don't be surprised if you sell a lot of sea food dishes if you have any available on your menu, due to the fact that customers have fish on the mind after seeing them swimming around in the aquariums!
