Fecal trap for aquaculture

Fecal trap unit for aquaculture research tanks

A fecal trap, also called a feces collection unit, is a device installed at the tank outlet to collect and concentrate feces and settleable particles produced by fish.

Used particularly in aquaculture research and experimental tanks, it separates solid matter from the water flow, making it easier to collect, weigh, and analyze.

Depending on the installation setup, the device can be fitted directly to the tank outlet pipe or used with a removable collection system. It is particularly useful for nutritional and digestibility trials, feed performance studies, and the characterization of waste produced by aquaculture operations.

Main applications:

  • collecting feces and particulate matter;
  • feeding and digestibility trials;
  • measuring and characterizing waste;
  • experimental studies in aquaculture;
  • monitoring zootechnical performance;
  • collecting samples for laboratory analysis.

The device can be supplied in different sizes, hydraulic configurations, and materials, depending on tank volume, circulation flow rate, and the experimental protocol.
