The Fishspace fish tank combines pet care with all the fun of a LEGO set. The bottom of this clever fish tank allows for kids to build small LEGO structures to decorate their pet's abode. Fishspace (a Kickstarter project) also allows children to build big LEGO structures around the sides of the fish tank. This product encourages kids to stretch their imaginations and get creative. It also ensures that kids won't neglect their water-dwelling pets. Children form bonds with their pets, no matter how small. This genius building block fish tank uses that special bond to make playtime even better. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.2/10 - Popularity: 21% | Activity: 37% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Gen Alpha - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Pets](https://www.trendhunter.com/pets) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Creative Fish Tanks:** Opportunity for companies to design innovative and interactive fish tanks that combine pet care with playtime. - **LEGO Integration:** Possibility for LEGO to explore partnerships or create their own fish tank sets that incorporate their building blocks. - **Interactive Pet Care:** Potential for companies to develop interactive products that combine pet care and creative play for children. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Pet Accessories:** Opportunity for the pet accessories industry to create unique fish tanks that engage children and promote creativity. - **Toy Manufacturing:** Possibility for toy manufacturers to explore new product lines that combine traditional toys like LEGO with pet care products. - **Children's Entertainment:** Potential for the children's entertainment industry to create interactive experiences that integrate pets and playtime. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Dream-Inspired Building Toys](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lego-dreamzzz.md) - [Waterless Fish Toys](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/zhu-zhu-aquarium.md) - [Fish Tank-Inspired Japanese Houses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nao-iwanari.md) - [Buildable Paper Playsets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/castle-playset.md) - [Green Community Building Kits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/arckit-greenscape-village.md) - [STEM-Driven Building Block Kits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lego-education-science-kits.md) - [Lego-Centric Apps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/brick-my-world.md) - [Building Block Gardening Systems](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lego-planterior.md) - [Storytelling Building Toys](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lego-city-missions.md)
