Setting up an aquatic laboratory that delivers reliable research results starts with the right equipment. Modern aquatic lab instrumentation combines automated monitoring, precise environmental controls and practical serviceability eliminating the guesswork from marine research facility design. This guide covers the essential aquatic laboratory equipment, water quality monitoring instruments and automation systems you need to maintain optimal conditions with [...]

Zebrafish (Danio rerio) have become one of the most popular model organisms for genetic, developmental, and behavioral research due to their genetic similarity to humans and their ability to produce hundreds of eggs in a single spawning. This makes them invaluable for research, and with the right environment and care, they can thrive in a breeding tank setting. For anyone [...]

Zebrafish (Danio rerio) have emerged as one of the most widely used model organisms in scientific research. Their genetic similarity to humans, rapid development, and transparency during early egg stages make them invaluable in studying genetics, developmental biology, toxicology, and disease modelling. However, the success of zebrafish research is not solely dependent on the organism itself but also heavily relies [...]

Aquatic life support systems are crucial for maintaining healthy, thriving environments for various species, from exotic fish and coral reefs in home aquariums to delicate marine animals in commercial or research settings. Choosing the right aquatic life support system (ALSS) can seem daunting with so many factors to consider, from filtration requirements and water quality parameters to automation levels and [...]

Maintaining a healthy aquatic environment, whether it's a large water feature, or a specialized research setup, requires more than just keeping the water clear; it involves a careful balance of chemistry, temperature, filtration, and consistent care. Mistakes in aquatic system maintenance can lead to issues like unhealthy water conditions, stressed or sick organisms, and eventually a failed system. However, with [...]

Environmentally-oriented research systems form the groundwork for numerous scientific investigations into the life of aquatic organisms. Systems like these are designed with great care to mimic natural conditions of habitat, yet providing the animals with a healthy and safe environment while giving researchers the opportunity to investigate behaviors, physiology, and genetics of the organisms under study. Each is equally important [...]

Saltwater research systems are used in many research applications, ranging from marine biology studies to environmental monitoring. These research areas are becoming increasingly large-scale and complex; hence, automation of such systems controls and sustains these environments. Automated saltwater aquatic research systems maintain consistency in the settings with high accuracy and decrease dependency on labor for the management of such complex [...]

Aquatic research systems are an essential tool to research different aquatic species such as Zebrafish, Xenopus, Cephalopods, Cuttlefish and much more. To maximize the effectiveness of these tools it's crucial to understand the design elements that can improve your research results and ensure precision. It's not about choosing equipment; it involves understanding how different design components interact to create a [...]

Xenopus laevis, also known as the African clawed frog, plays a role as a model organism in research because of its resilience and simple care requirements. It's essential to keep a functioning Xenopus system and colony to guarantee the health of the frogs and the accuracy of research results. Let’s explore the strategies, for managing such a system focusing on [...]
