Abstract: Bottom grading apparatuses for aquaculture systems are disclosed herein. An example system includes a vessel filled with water that receives fish, the vessel having a bottom surface with drain; a plenum in fluid communication with the vessel; a multiway valve in fluid communication with the plenum, a mortality pipe, and a grading pipe; and a mortality container in fluid communication with the mortality pipe and the vessel, wherein the fish can re-enter the vessel through the mortality container and deceased fish remain in the mortality container, wherein when the multiway valve is closed to the mortality pipe, the fish will divert through the grading pipe.

Abstract: Systems and methods for intensive recirculating aquaculture are provided herein. An example system includes water sourced from a first segment of a saline aquifer, a recirculating aquaculture system receiving the sourced water and producing discharge water, and a water discharge point located within second segment of the saline aquifer disposed below the first segment of the saline aquifer.
