Aquaculture Research & Development
Research & Development
At Aquatic Equipment & Design, Inc., research and development are at the core of our approach to aquaculture system design. Every system presents unique challenges, requiring tailored solutions to ensure efficiency, sustainability, and long-term success.
Innovative Solutions for Unique Challenges
No two aquaculture systems are alike, and each presents its own set of challenges. Our research-driven approach ensures that every system is designed for optimal performance, efficiency, and sustainability. Whether you’re building a new system or refining an existing one, we develop tailored solutions that meet your specific needs.

Procedure To Clean Your Aeration Diffusers Regularly
A fish farmer operating a recirculating aquaculture system will need to maintain efficient oxygen transfer rates to ensure their fish continue to grow and extend the life of the low pressure aeration system (i.e. regenerative blower).
How to Calculate a Feed Conversion Ratio in Aquaculture
A large portion of the fish farmer’s operational cost is allocated to the price of the fish diet. The fish diet is fed to increase growth rates and maintain fish health in high-density aquaculture environments. The farmer needs to make sure he or she is optimizing feed use, reducing costs, and minimizing the environmental impact by not overfeeding. In aquaculture, a low Feed Conversion Ratio (FCR) is particularly desirable to reduce the volume of feed required and thus, reduce production costs and improve farm profitability.
What Are Common Diseases and Pests of Lettuce, Basil, And Cucumbers Grown In Aquaponics?
Humans are not the only organisms that find lettuce, basil and cucumber a tasty treat and despite your best efforts your crop can become affected by disease or pests.The best form of defense against plant disease and pests is the farmer’s shadow, meaning the farmer needs to be actively looking for the presence and signs of disease and pests in and around their production area.
