Containers for transporting and breeding fish

A plastic fish tank is a practical, cost-effective option that will help you grow your business efficiently. Artificial fish farming is a popular type of business. Natural and artificial reservoirs, as well as tanks and plastic are used to keep aquatic animals. Advantages of plastic tanks:

• Possibility of growing fish outdoors and indoors.
• Protection against poachers.
• Ease of maintenance – it is easier to clean the tank than a pool or pond.
• Visual control over the condition of aquatic animals.
• The tanks are suitable for growing trout, sturgeon and other species, mussels and crayfish.
• Mobility – the ability to repeatedly reinstall to another location.
• Possibility to grow fish in conditions of high population density.

The success of aquatic animal rearing depends on the conditions of detention. To create favourable conditions, special equipment is required to saturate the water with oxygen. The optimum water temperature for transporting fish products is 10-12°C in summer and 6-8°C in winter. Thanks to the improved thermal insulation properties of plastic, the water in the tank heats up slowly in summer and cools down in winter. Additional thermal insulation of the walls is possible.
A high-quality barrel for transporting live fish meets sanitary and hygienic standards. The use of special tanks helps to avoid product losses during transportation. Due to the war, the company’s costs are reduced and profits increase. Preserving the consumer properties of fish products during transportation helps to increase consumer demand and sales.

Tanks for transporting fish made of plastic: advantages

Tanks for growing and transporting fish are made of food-grade plastic. The eco-friendly material is safe for aquatic animals and humans. It does not emit toxic substances into the environment. It does not interact with liquid contents, does not change the colour, taste or smell of water. The plastic container for transporting fish is not subject to rotting and corrosion. Other advantages:

• Resistance to solar radiation.
• Low weight, which simplifies the process of loading the tank onto the vehicle platform.
• Versatility. Plastic tanks are suitable for transporting all kinds of liquids, including drinking and industrial water, milk and dairy products, juices and oils, fuels and lubricants.
• The service life is more than 60 years.
• Can be operated in the temperature range from -30°C to +50°C.
• Resistance to temperature changes – the material does not crack in the cold.
• Maintainability. The ability to restore integrity and tightness in case of damage.

An important advantage of plastic is its chemical inertness. Caring for a tank for breeding and transporting fish involves the use of detergents and disinfectants. Plastic tanks for transporting fish are not destroyed by household and sanitary chemicals, do not react with chemicals.

Tanks for transporting fish: types

Plastic containers for transporting live fish differ in size, volume, and colour. Typical dimensions are 1250-2140 mm wide and 1400-2360 mm long. The volume varies from 1000-5000 litres. Tanks are available in transparent and translucent materials. As standard, they are equipped with a manhole with a screw-on lid and a breathing valve, a drain valve for quick emptying of the tank, and a 300 mm diameter hatch for fish unloading. Additional accessories:

• compressor for injecting air and maintaining sufficient oxygen concentration in the water;
• perforated tube that distributes air evenly;
• straps for fixing the tank on the vehicle platform;
• a hatch with a diameter of 200-400 mm for unloading fish.

The price of the tank depends on the equipment. The compressor is powered by a 12V car socket or a battery. If necessary, the tank can be insulated, which allows you to transport fish at sub-zero temperatures.
