A Self‐Contained, Controlled Hatchery System for Rearing Lake Whitefish Embryos for Experimental Aquaculture

Abstract

Abstract A self-contained, small-scale research hatchery was constructed in a modified chromatography refrigerator equipped with a filtered and UV-sterilized water recirculation system. Lake Whitefish Coregonus clupeaformis embryos were raised in conventional upwelling hatching jars, in dishes with a continuous slow “drip feed,” and in a variety of static water incubation systems in petri dishes and multiwell plates.
