Do It yourself

摘要

Aquaculture research facilities may have recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS) equipment (tanks, pipes, filter) or out-of-date research systems still in storage. It would be easy to dismiss kit like such as this as clutter, but the Berlin-based Aquaculture team of Leibniz Institute of Freshwater Ecology and Inland Fisheries (IGB) in the Forschungsverbund Berlin e.V. believes that this could be a mistake.Technical Services employee Laura Klatt and her colleague, PhD candidate Christopher Shaw, have developed and built a modular, functioning RAS with the remnants of obsolete equipment.
