StarStarStarStar

Nitrate Reactor

StarStarStarStar

Reduces nitrates to nitrogen gas, helping to control algae growth and prevent toxicity.

StarStarStarStar

Settling Basin

StarStarStarStar

Allows gravity to settle out heavy particulates before further filtration, extending the life of mechanical filters.

StarStarStarStar

pH Control System

StarStarStarStar

Balances pH levels to prevent stress or harm to fish and to optimize bacterial filtration efficiency.

StarStarStarStar

Oxygenation System

StarStarStarStar

Supplies dissolved oxygen for fish respiration, essential for high stocking densities.

StarStarStarStar

Temperature Control System

StarStarStarStar

Maintains optimal water temperature for species-specific growth and metabolism rates.

StarStarStarStar

Water Pump

StarStarStarStar

Circulates water throughout the system, ensuring uniform water quality and temperature.

StarStarStarStar

Algal Turf Scrubber

StarStarStarStar

Utilizes algae's natural filtration to remove nutrients and purify water, while also producing supplemental oxygen.

StarStarStarStar

Biofilter

StarStarStarStar

Transforms ammonia into nitrite and then to nitrate, crucial for removing toxic waste from water.

StarStarStarStar

Stocking Density

StarStarStarStar

Carefully calculated fish stocking limits to ensure sufficient resource availability and to prevent overcrowding.

StarStarStarStar

Emergency Backup Systems

StarStarStarStar

Provides power and system support in case of failure to prevent fish loss and system crashes.

StarStarStarStar

Ozone Generator

StarStarStarStar

Generates ozone to oxidize organic matter and harmful chemicals, further sanitizing and clarifying the water.

StarStarStarStar

CO2 Degasser

StarStarStarStar

Removes excessive carbon dioxide from the water, preventing respiratory distress in fish.

StarStarStarStar

Protein Skimmer

StarStarStarStar

Removes organic compounds and fine particulates from the water, improving water quality and reducing nitrogenous waste.

StarStarStarStar

Ammonia Remover

StarStarStarStar

Actively absorbs or converts ammonia from the water, which in high levels is lethal to fish.

StarStarStarStar

Mechanical Filter

StarStarStarStar

Removes solid wastes like uneaten food and feces, improving water clarity and reducing disease risk.

StarStarStarStar

Redox Potential

StarStarStarStar

Measures oxidation-reduction potential, indicating the water's ability to break down waste products.

StarStarStarStar

UV Sterilizer

StarStarStarStar

Uses ultraviolet light to kill harmful microbes and pathogens, securing the health of the aquatic organisms.

StarStarStarStar

Dissolved Solids Removal

StarStarStarStar

Reduces the concentration of dissolved minerals and other solids to prevent toxicity and imbalances in water chemistry.

StarStarStarStar

Sump Tank

StarStarStarStar

Acts as a reservoir to balance water levels and house various equipment away from the main culture tank.

StarStarStarStar

Feed Management

StarStarStarStar

Optimizes feeding to reduce waste and increase feed conversion ratio, lowering costs and environmental impacts.
