Created in 1989 by two Canadian aquatic biologists, AQUABIOTECH offers a variety of warm and cold water recycling systems for aquaculture and trials on toxicology, marine ecology, fish physiology, nutrition, disease, behaviour and reproductive biology. This equipment can meet every requirement of the Canadian Council on Animal Care (CCAC). The company also assists with the design of marine research facilities.

Our B2C (business to client) business model is personalized and intended primarily for academic researchers. We maintain close relationships with our research clients and see ourselves simply as “scientists helping scientists” to become leaders in their own field.

Also, Aquabiotech design and builds industrial scale lobster holding systems for the American and European fishing industry applying the same rigorous principles. The Eco Lobster Condo is a concept by which specially designed trays or totes are stacked under a shower or drip system and serviced by a water recycling system. Shellfish are maintained submerged in cold flowing water that trickles down from one tank to the next below. Aquabiotech’s systems provide significant advantages:

Less stress on the animals: no handling of individual lobster
No dead zones: oxygenated water flows around each animal;
Cost efficient: they more than double the holding capacity of a pond
Add flexibilty: fish totes can be replaced by trays for long-term holding.
