Fish Holding Tank

Stores your fish and let them

acclimate, undisturbed, to your laboratory conditions

A peaceful, optimal environment

• A very quiet system!
• Wide temperature range (2-30°C).
• A swift current (4 cm/sec) reduces aggressive behavior in fish (adjustable).
• Tank is divided into two sections with removable screen insert
• Clear lid, exposing fish to ambient photoperiod
• Air stone for additional aeration (if required)
• Makes a great water bath for static-type experiments!

Green technology!

• Uses little water: up to 99.9% of water flow is recycled
• Efficient pump and chilling system
• Insulated tank

Requires little maintenance

• No siphoning needed; a swift water flow flushes debris to a novel sediment trap.
• Easy-access, five-stage water filtration: solid removal pad with activated carbon, carbonate buffer, biofiltration, efficient CO₂ degassing by propeller pump
• Biofilter comes pre-coated with active nitrifying bacteria (unique). This significantly cuts back ammonia peak when the unit is initially filled with animals.
• Water pipes can be dismantled for cleaning and disinfecting; ceramic biofilter autoclavable.
• Tank on a high-strength industrial grade fiberglass and plastic stand, with built-in Microban® antimicrobial protection.
• Heat exchanger is in seawater-resistant titanium.
