Aquarists at Birmingham’s National Sea Life Centre have been sprucing up the attraction using specialist kit this week.
Cleaning and maintenance actually happens year-round and is not seasonal, with staff at centres across the country spending over 36,000 hours per year keeping animal habitats, including 756 glass windows, in tip-top condition for 16,700 creatures.
Back in January, aquarists at Sea Life London conducted its annual “count and clean”.
Wearing wetsuits and armed with a range of tools and cleaning equipment, experts at the famous South Bank attraction counted more than 6,100 of its fascinating creatures.
