I dunno. Professional aquarist? I used to work at a public aquarium, and the animal caretaker position was called an aquarist. haha

If you're looking for someone that does this though, check your LFS (especially if they are saltwater specific). I work at one and my boss cares for about 50 tanks around the area.

Tank maintainer, or aquarium servicer, sounds right anyways.
