Technical Remarks:
Isoplex Bench-Top unit with four 9-L tanks, nine 2.75-L tanks, and four 1.0-L
tanks designed to be ideal for use in classrooms and small laboratories.
Aquatic Habitats, the vendor, reports that each 9.0-L tank can hold up to 70
fish (4 tanks x 70 fish/tank = 280 fish), the 2.75-L tanks hold up to 30 fish (9
tanks x 30 fish/tank = 270 fish) and the 1.0-L tank holds one or two fish in
isolation (4 tanks x 2 fish/tank = 8 fish), for a total capacity of 558 adult
fish.
