摘要
An aeration apparatus for keeping aquatic life alive includes a container for containing a body of water, aquatic life, and an air space. The aeration apparatus is designed for transport in a vehicle receiving locomotive power from an internal combustion engine having a vacuum line. The aeration apparatus has an exhaust tube which has an inlet in the air space and an outlet connected to the vacuum line for drawing air from the air space into the vacuum line thereby creating subatmospheric pressure in the air space. The apparatus also has an air tube which has an outlet in the water body and an inlet in the atmosphere. The method for transporting aquatic life involves providing means for fluid communication between the vacuum line and the air space, providing means for fluid communication between the atmosphere and the water body, and drawing air from the air space to the vacuum line in amounts sufficient to create a pressure differential between the air space and the atmosphere sufficient to cause air to flow from the atmosphere into the water body thereby generating air bubbles in the water body and oxygenating the air. The apparatus, vehicle and method are useful for long distance transport of aquatic life.
