ADOPT AN ANIMAL

become an aquaparent

overview

Form a lasting connection with your favorite Aquarium animals by becoming an Aquaparent. By symbolically adopting one of our animals, you’ll make a new friend, learn their story, and contribute to their daily care and wellbeing. The next time you visit the Aquarium, you’ll have the excitement of seeing the animal you helped support! While adoption does not grant ownership of our animals, which will remain at the Aquarium under the care of our expert staff, your participation in the adoption program gives our staff the tools they need to keep our animals healthy and happy.
