  • Aquatic animal egg collection apparatus, and method of use
    Patent number: 7255064
    Abstract: The collection of aquatic animal eggs during hatchery production is a critical step in the successful rearing of these animals. Currently, the equipment and culture methods do not allow large numbers of animals to be spawned at the same time without several people handling the process. The disclosed invention solves the problem of collecting large quantities of released aquatic animal eggs after spawning many adults at the same time. The apparatus is simple to build, maintain, and repair, and the method of its use requires only one person to handle the spawning of many adults.
