Ocean threats extend into the deep sea
Though the deep sea seems remote and far away, it is profoundly affected by human activities including fossil fuel burning, overfishing, habitat destruction, and plastic pollution.
Our aquarist Kelsey stopped by for a discussion about the Kelp Forest exhibit. Tune in to hear how we train and feed giant sea bass. Plus, learn what it takes to care for the other plants and animals that call this habitat home!
What is target training and why is it important for giant sea bass? What’s the secret to keep algae flourishing? Watch scenes of swaying kelp from our Kelp Forest Cam as you learn the answers to these questions and more.
