WORKING WITH SHARKS

A job as a cleaner may not sound all that fun and exciting. Every day, you have to go to work and clean the same place over and over again. But what if your job requires you to put on a wet suit and dive into a huge water tank full of sharks? As a professional shark tank cleaner at the New York Aquarium, this is what Mark Adams does every day.

The job of an aquarium tank cleaner is an important one. Adams and his team pick up any food that the sharks do not eat. If food is left in the tank, it will go bad. The divers also clean off the algae (a green plant that grows in water) that grows on the glass. If the cleaners do not clean the glass, visitors cannot see the sharks inside the tank. Most importantly, cleaning the tank each day helps to keep the sharks healthy and happy. Sometimes, as they clean, the divers wave to the visitors.

"We go through a long training program," Adams explains, "I'm confident and I enjoy my job." Swimming in a tank full of sharks may sound like a very dangerous job, but the sharks are used to people. Adams feels safe when he dives. Of course, the sharks are well fed. "When we get in the tank-they're not that hungry!" says Adams. He always goes in the tank with another diver. Also, another team member watches from the top of the tank. The team members talk to each other through radios. They also use hand signals to communicate. Adams says, "Sometimes, we stop cleaning when the sharks have too much energy. But we've had no serious problems, and really want to keep it that way."
