The health of the animals is my top priority. This requires aquarium maintenance -- from siphoning gravel of debris to cleaning the acrylic of red algae. I also provide the animals with daily feedings. I am currently involved in a breeding program with our collection of dart frogs, specifically of the species D. tinchtorius.

Habitat Maintenance and animal feedings required most of my time at the Butterfly Pavilion. I was also responsible for handling the animals at different exhibits and answering questions from the public.
