You will be involved in activities such as weekly packing and shipping of fish, tank maintenance and cleaning, facility organization, daily feeding (even the sharks!), acclimation and quarantine of wild-caught animals, and helping staff with a wide variety of projects ranging from repairs and plumbing to animal life support.
