Dear all,
I am a marine biologist who needs a little advice on aereation systems.
I have a 130gallon tank (approx 3ft x 3ft x 1ft deep) that I will be using to temporarily hold undersized juvenile lobsters before releasing them back to the sea. We are currently working with local fishermen in order to try to find alternatives to avoid catching juveniles in the first place -this release of the juveniles back to the sea is just a short term 'fix'.
We generally have 40-65 lb of undersized lobster per month, which require around 2 gallons of water per pound. They will be held for no more than 3 days before release.
I have never had a tank of any sorts, and am on a rather remote island. Any advice on what aereation system may be suitable would be greatly appreciated.
I sincerely appreciate any advice,
Best regards,
Kate
