Postcards From Norway

9th European Zebrafish Meeting

Oslo, Norway was the setting for the 9th European Zebrafish Meeting in June. In the beautiful land of the (almost) midnight sun, approximately 700 attendees enjoyed 5 days of meetings, poster sessions, and a wonderful gala dinner at the unique Oslo Opera House. It is a pleasure to help sponsor this meeting, as well as see old friends and associates and meet new ones.

Have Fish Will Travel

The Metal Division at Aquaneering has been super busy fabricating Live Haul Fish Transport Tanks for the Departments of Fish and Wildlife for many states in the US. These tanks are dual walled aluminum with insulation. They can have many customized features, such as folding walkways, temperature gauges, oxygen diffusers, aeration, and electrical. Transport tanks have also been fabricated from stainless steel. Fish and Game Departments move fish around their hatcheries or from hatchery to stock out lakes for recreational fishing. Fish farmers may need to move fish around the fish farm or take them to market. Aquaneering has been producing some of the most reliable and rugged transport tanks in the US for almost 30 years! GO TEAM!
