Our Mission
At Aquatic Habitat Conservancy, we are dedicated to the protection and preservation of aquatic habitats and their diverse species, with a special focus on fish, particularly killifish. Our mission is to safeguard all habitats from the impacts of climate change and human intervention. We aim to create underground sanctuaries around the world, ensuring the survival of entire ecosystems for future generations.
Why Underground?
Our innovative underground facilities, located 20 feet below the surface, offer a controlled environment to mimic natural conditions. Here, we can precisely manage light, heat, moisture, and other critical factors, making conservation both effective and sustainable. This approach allows us to protect a rich diversity of over 70 species, including 25 unique lizard species, alongside a myriad of plants, fishes, and other fauna.
Conservation Through Science
Led by our founder, James Phillips, a renowned geneticist and conservationist, we are at the forefront of genetic diversity research. Our work ensures the continued genetic health and vitality of the species under our care. We collaborate with global research institutions, contributing to vital conservation science.
