The San Pedro-based aquarium ensures the health and happiness of its aquatic residents, expressing the utmost care through their aquatic nursery, where they take care of endangered species, and their robust feeding program, where divers collect kelp from the ocean and volunteers grow algae and other invertebrates in their laboratories.
The aquarium experience is a combination of aquaculture, animal welfare education, museum collections, touch tanks and displays, meant to develop a deep sense of wonder for the ocean while also inspiring individuals to play a critical role in the continued health and sustainability of our wondrous environment.
