He started his career running Underwater World education programs and went on to become Curator of Fishes at the famous Sunshine Coast tourist attraction. This profession saw him help implement a new aquarium in South Korea at Haeundae Beach; it was here Richard noticed whilst undergoing a routine maintenance dive on the aquariums intake pipe that there was a complete lack of marine life, due to overfishing pressure. Having witnessed such catastrophic devastation he recognised this as a wakeup call for Australia and its possible environmental future. This coupled with a realisation of increasing difficulty for many children to visit great learning facilities such as public aquariums due to increasing expenses and the tyranny of distance brought about the idea of taking the sea to the children, providing live marine life incursions.
