Thanks for the "heads up" Mitch. I'm seriously thinking about this but don't like thinking about having to tear down my tank and move it to Omaha.:lol: Would the aquarium pay to fly me from Sioux Falls to Omaha every day?:lol: What are the typical work hours of a "late shift aquarium keeper"? Are there opportunities for advancement, and how often do those come about?

I think working w/ over 30,000gal of coral will make you quickly forget about your tank.
Late shift is 12:30-9:00pm M-F. Late shift is a great training ground and many of them have moved up in the past years. As far as aquarist openings, it highly depends. We are kinda viewed by new aquarists as a starting point before moving on to the big boys (Long Beach, Shedd, etc....), so we probably average an opening a year.
