Getting out into the field to explore world-class marine habitats is always a thrill! 🇯🇵 This summer, we had the opportunity to go behind the scenes with our friends at the Tokyo Sea Life Aquarium, and we just had to share the experience with you!

Seeing this vibrant, thriving aquatic display up close is mesmerizing. The colors and activity are spectacular, giving you that same exhilarating rush as dropping into the ocean for a dive! 🤿

Ever wonder what it takes to keep a massive public aquarium running smoothly? Check out our exclusive look at the heavy-duty equipment, intense lighting rigs, massive filtration holding vats, and sprawling maintenance gangways that keep these habitats pristine. ⚙️

Whether you’re managing a commercial facility or maintaining your own reef tank, having reliable equipment and staying on top of your maintenance schedule is key to a thriving ecosystem.

If you need to dial in your routine, our Q2 issue offers some excellent maintenance tips– and our advertising partners (that keep RHM free for readers like you🙌) are the perfect place to start for all your at-home equipment needs. From filter media cups to lighting and skimmers, our advertising partners offer all the goods!
