Fish egg incubator 3 jars

Introduction to the Tilapia egg incubator 3 jars

For fish hatcheries who handle smaller amounts of fish eggs we have developed the fish egg incubator with 3 jars. Fish eggs will be transferred to one of the three Mc Donald hatching jars of the fish egg incubation system plug and play. Each hatching jar has a volume of 8 litres at a density of maximum of 20,000 to 60,000 eggs per jar, resulting in a total density of 60,000 to 180,000 eggs per cycle (depending on fish species). Please check out our larger fish egg incubation system (with six hatching jars) if you require a system for larger production. After a period of 3 to 5 days, the eggs will hatch. After hatching, the yolk sac fry will flow out of the jar into a white fry reception tank. After complete yolk sac absorption, the fry should be transferred to the fingerling systems.

Specifications of the system:

• 3x Mc Donald hatching jars, approximately 8 litres each
• 3x Fish fry reception tanks
• Sedimentation filter tank (mechanical filtration) allows for removing all the solid particles from the system water flow.
• Pump tank in which pump, freshwater supply and overflow pipe are installed.
• Frame (out of SS304) with adjustable stands for easy installation of the system.
• Connection for freshwater supply (1x floating valve (automatic filling), 1x ball valve (manual filling))
• 1x Messner pump (48 W – 240 V) (made in Germany)
• 1x 40-watt VGE UV-C unit with SS304 housing (made in The Netherlands)
• PVC piping and fittings to connect the different system elements.

Very good hatching results have been realized for the Nile tilapia (Oreochromis Niloticus)
