The Aquarist

An aquarist is a person who keeps and cares for aquatic animals and plants, typically in home or public aquariums. Their responsibilities include maintaining water quality, feeding the fish, and ensuring a suitable environment for the animals. This can involve setting up tanks, controlling water temperature, and managing filters and lighting. Aquarists may work with various species, from freshwater fish to marine life, and need knowledge about biology, ecology, and aquarium technology. Their goal is to create a healthy habitat that allows fish and plants to thrive while providing an aesthetically pleasing display for observers.
