Hello All,
I'm the Zebrafish Technician for a facility with 18 racks (~1100
tanks), and 3 more are scheduled to be installed tomorrow ( for a
total of 4 separate recirculating systems). Currently, I'm the only
staff member who cares for the fish and facility, and I'm quite
concerned that I will not be able to keep up with the workload. Since
aquatic model organisms aren't as strictly regulated or as well-
established as the murine species, I've not been able to find any
information regarding the "typical" job description of the Zebrafish
Tech, how other institutions delegate fish facilities duties, and how
many people they employ to cover these tasks. So, I was hoping to get
some feedback on this matter from other members of the zebrafish
community for a means of comparison, and hopefully some information to
take to my supervisors.
Thanks so much
Caroline
