I wanted to become a marine biologist as a kid. When I realized I lacked scientific and mathematical aptitude, I turned to reefkeeping instead. And I can tell you my Clownfish would be too sad to see me leave and study the bigger ocean.

[@oceanscholar]

Hey it's definitely not for everyone, being a marine biologist is definitely way harder than it seems! Reefkeeping honestly sounds just as exciting and I love your connection to your Clownfish hahaha. I've been considering getting into it myself!

[@AbsoluteZero6714]

Eli Myron Hahaha good luck! Hope you can get into it it’s awesome!

[@Bard420]

Do you make good money doing it?

[@tenoxko]

That is awsome!... My kid loves the ocean... I mean he loves it.. he is my shark expert... How did you get into reefkeeping.

[@wildera7456]

I've always wanted to pursue marine photography as a career. The ocean has always mystified me. I've seen how beautiful it is and also i know how terrifying and unpredictable it is, and i want to experience it myself.

[@oceanscholar]

Luckily, marine photography is something you can always start yourself! All you need is a camera 😜. But i agree, it’s people like Paul Nicklen that started my love for marine biology and the incredible things you can do in this field.

[@AbsoluteZero6714]

:) Glad you share a love of the ocean. For me there’s really no other way to cultivate an intimate relationship with the ocean than to take care of a small piece of it on a daily basis. That’s why I have decided to become a reef tank hobbyist. You may swim with fish and ocean animals while diving or snorkeling or doing research on them up close, but none is as magical as having them live for years, even decades under none other than your own care and regard for their environment. I am deeply upset that there are activist groups trying to end the saltwater hobby. If possible I would only buy Captive bred fish and corals (which unfortunately is far from a reality currently, save for a select number of species), but ending the saltwater hobby altogether would mean losing a vital source of inspiration for future generations in their appreciation of God’s design when He created the oceans of the world. Not to mention with the rate that our coral reefs are dying due to global warming, some species may only exist in captivity as a result of captive breeding efforts a few decades down the line. We may even assist marine biologists by growing corals and raising fish to give back to the oceans (of course we’ll keep some to ourselves in our tanks :)). We can be the staunchest allies of marine biologists and I really believe that even the marine biologist experience is not complete without getting into the hobby side of things. :) My deepest disrespect for these brain dead conservation groups and the politicians who back them unconditionally. If they really think they can act in the better interests of these beautiful and amazing marine animals, they should prove that by taking care of a reef tank. I bet 90% of them will think it’s too difficult after only a week. If they have not personally experienced what it takes to maintain such fragile ecosystems yet try to attack the people who can AKA us, they’re in no position to do what’s “best” for these animals. Same with their attitude towards cats and dogs really. I’d not hesitate to use brutal tactics to crush them if I ever become a governor or even the president. I’d treat them as a modern day KKK, domestic terrorist groups and use every tool in my playbook to track down their leaders one by one and rip their organizational abilities to shreds.

[@austinjones1084]

Getting PADI Open Water Diver certified costs around $200 and involves some classwork, a few pool dives, and a few ocean dives. You need that certification to be able to go on other trips and, once you have that, you can keep going and get more certifications in more specialized areas like cave diving or ice diving, or upgrade your fundamental skills to Advanced Open Water, Rescue, Master Scuba Diver, and even further. It's really cool- you need to try it!

@Elyana Fowler so basically there are loads of science/sea animals books like the science of ocean and animal encyclopedia which they will give you a basic understanding or there are websites like seneca which will help you with biology and when your about 14 or if you are that age or higher then you can do 6 week trips to like Figi and the website is www.gvi.com which allows you to do courses and its open now. Just enjoying the sea maybe water sports or get maybe some diving in if you can and then at uni study biology, chemistry, physics and mathematics and then just apply for some jobs like im 12 so like i don't probably know everything but this is basically it

I'm currently an undergraduate student looking to get a masters in marine biology. I've been fascinated with this career for a long time. However, one of the biggest issues I've been worried about in pursuing this career is the whole independency thing. I've always imagined working with a team in this sort of career, but if that's not how it really works, I'm not sure if its really going to suit me since I'm really used to following instructions, a set plan, a schedule, or someone else's orders. My biggest drive in marine biology is because I want to research sharks, specifically. I want to be in the field with them, tag them, study their ecology, follow their patterns, etc.

I feel for a lot of people wanting a job in this career money is not of high importance for them.

Why did you give up becoming a veterinarian? I just graduated earlier this year, but I've been thinking for a while now about going back to school to study to become a marine veterinarian because working with marine animals has always been a dream

[@oceanscholar]

I gave up becoming a marine veterinarian because I realized I really wasn't all that interested in animal health and medicine. I'm far more interested in ecology and environmental advocacy. Although you can definitely incorporate both of these into the life of a marine veterinary position, I didn't want those interests to come second to the primary role of animal health. The road is TOUGH for marine veterinarians, but the persistent and dedicated do succeed! Also, once you actually receive your DVM, you can do all kinds of things! Even if you don't end up finding a position to work with aquatic animals. One of the great benefits of pursuing veterinary science is that DVMs will always have a job.

Hi there! I am currently an AS student and am aspiring to become a Marine Biologist.

Now, the problem is there are no aquariums or zoos nearby where I live where I could look for volunteering opportunities. Currently, I am just doing a Coursera Course on Large Marine Ecosystems. What kind of further ONLINE activities can I part take in and what other resources are available which will help me out in the long run? (other topics I am particularly interested in - ocean conservation and plastic pollution)

If you can, keep taking online courses; watch documentaries, KZbin videos, etc. You can also add in books or textbooks if a certain topic interests you.

Hey Eli, how could I I get in touch with you ? I awfully need an honest advice in this field I am oceanography student, 27 yo, fond of diving, i am licensed CMAS DIVE MASTER, BUT i have many obstacles. Waiting your response

[@oceanscholar]

Hey Ahmed, so sorry for the delayed response. If you'd still like to contact me, you can email me at [e-mail] :)

If I want to be in the water with animals what field should I go in

[@carysdeklerk2009]

Damn how cool would it be to be an ocean game ranger :-D

[@asyllin4245]

I would absolutely love to be a marine biologist. However, I cannot swim and would prefer working in labs where I can do research. Do you have any advice on how to go from here?

[@mwangas9529]

Being a marine biologist doesn't require you to know how to swim.. lots of scientists doesn't even dive only spent the rest of their careers in lab, writing, and giving lectures

[@snatanhjkil3238]

I’m 13 and want to become a marine biologist who is like diving or finding new species it’s just because I love the ocean it feels like my home I swim a lot (I’m an regional swimming middle-sex region)and I’m good at science do you have any idea for what I should do

[@sphynx3902]

I am from a mathematical background...can I pursue this beautiful course ??

[@deliriousdaphne]

Can someone please give me tips on how to get a scholarship after I'm done with A levels.. Along with that I still have to do my year 12 so I'd like to know some things I can do right now?

[@DuaneEseo-ul1bg]

What are the major subjects you take in marine biology?

[@arnelpanabe7623]

I'm studied Marine Biology. It's fun to know about every species in the Ocean.. heheh but I love to study about marine plankton

[@hollowjake8845]

i accidentaly put it on 2x speed but i still puased it on the right one on accident

[@maryclaireyabut9010]

Are the job opportunities for marine biology good or you have to get a PhD to get the good jobs because when I was a kid I always wanted to take care of sea animals. But, now I don’t know. I’m trying to protect my financial state for the future and I’m not the type to take risk just because it’s my dream.

[@draxbrady1535]

I don’t know how much this helps, but from what I gather a PhD means that you will be leading the research projects, a master degree means you will usually be a leader within the project, and a bachelors degree can get you to be the worker within the project (salaries vary depending on degree, job, and location) I know it is a very competitive field with more people competing for jobs than jobs. If you are truly passionate, I’m confidant you’ll find a field that’s right for you. Hope this helped a little!

[@Ilemaurice687]

Can i ask u some question ?

[@ianfilmtv695]

I'm a highschool students and my dream career is marine biology but the problem is ....... 😭

[@cgbg660]

Could you give tips for all of the careers?

[@malachipenalver8436]

I've always like studying about different animals in the ocean, but never got the chance to actually do Hands on like seeing dolphins and holding other animals

[@Ravihoevenaars]

Hey i want to become a marine biologist i currently study a bachelor do you need an accedemic

[@nelumikasenalee3049]

my dream is to become a marine biologist and a marine veterinarian

[@oceanscholar]

That’s awesome!

[@RLifeRoses]

Do you have to become skinny for this? I’ve been wanting to do this for so long but I never had confidence in myself to do it.

[@kaiyalee3785]

What 😭

[@ddeonghwaaaa]

i love the ocean and marine life but i cant even swim 😭 i need to learn asap

[@jahnvisingh1723]

Is it important to take maths in class 11 to become a marine researcher

[@oceanscholar]

Math is definitely a very important part of being a marine researcher! Especially statistics. This is how scientists take their observations and turn them into clear results!

[@henrycolton3263]

Can you get a job with a BA/BS or would you recommend getting a Masters as well?

[@AngelMartinez-zo2dh]

I go to job corps in denison iowa and im about to be going to advanced training in concrete masonry and once i graduate from there I plan on going to collage for becoming a Marine biologist if u have any tips for me that would help alot please and thank you

[@oceanscholar]

That's awesome! A diverse background is surprisingly useful in this field. In fact, one of my colleagues actually had to teach herself a LOT about masonry and cement for her PhD as she had to makeshift a set up for her coral settlement tiles! You'd be surprised the overlap you see in marine science between disciplines. My big tip for getting started is to start "dipping your toes in the water" as much as you can with volunteering. Find local opportunities related to marine science around your area and try to volunteer with them. This will start to give you a better idea of the direction you want to head in.

[@AngelMartinez-zo2dh]

What college would take me?

[@Coffeeandmorecoffeeplease]

is it odd that I can't swim and also fear deep water but am still so fascinated by the ocean and want to be a Marine Biologist lol?

[@Hannahgsmith3146]

are there any jobs that just work with sharks?

[@Sunil-ob3gf]

Hi I'm very much interested in marine archaeology I have many doubts can you clarify me ?
