Big change. The hatchery has been sold and we are no longer in the business of providing live animals. We are still consulting on aquaculture and waste related problems with an emphasis on consulting for Consulting Engineering Companies.

Our Strain of wild type zebrafish (ZDR) has been transferred to Aquatica Tropicals in Florida so researcher can continue to obtain this high quality, high performance, genetically diverse (non-inbreed) strain of zebra fish for their research needs. Aquatica Tropicals can be contacted at 1 (813) 757-0289 and they should be able to satisfy your research animal needs.

Zebrafish Custom Biological materials

Zebrafish (aka, zebra danio) for both the hobby and research markets are major part of our business. We can provide staged embryos, larva or adult breeders for the zebra fish research community (Availability List -- Product List).

We also provide custom biological materials from zebra fish according to the protocols provided by the customer. For example, we provide staged embryos, with accurate staging, frozen in LN in RNAase free tubes, provided by the customer, ready for extractions and use in the customers equipment. We also do formalin preparations, methanol dehydrations, dry ice freezing, and any other protocols required, except we do not have safety facilities adequate for ENU treatments.

We are starting a new set of files called Zebra Notes where we cover several subjects of interest to the research community.

ZebraFish Notes:

1. The question of how to unpack a shipment of live fish is a common question and can be very critical. In a PDF format.
2. The startup of a new system. In PDF Format.
3. Developing and hatching large numbers of embryos
4. Improving development time with live foods (egg to egg in < 50 days).
5. Diets and egg viability.
6. Supersaturation problems
7. Spawning using spawning trays
