Live Animal Feeding – Ocean Habitat

Watch our aquarium staff bring mealtime to life in the Our Changing Oceans exhibit! During this short program, you'll observe a live feeding of the marine animals in our 10,000-gallon tank while getting to know the experts who care for them. The tank is home to a variety of fascinating creatures, including several species of angelfish and tangs, colorful grunts, balloonfish, and lobsters. It's a great way to see these ocean dwellers in action and learn more about their behaviors and habitats. This is a walk-up program, so no registration or advance planning is needed—just show up and enjoy. It's free for all ages and runs for about 15 minutes, making it perfect for families looking for a quick, engaging activity. Whether your kids are curious about marine life or you simply want to see something interesting during your visit, this feeding demonstration offers a behind-the-scenes look at how the museum's Living Collections team keeps these animals healthy and thriving.
