- 1. AQUARIUM DISPLAYS¡ This coral reef display is a 75 gallon bow front, built-in display, located in the lobby of a corporate office building. Filtration equipment, lighting and water make-up are located behind the display. Organisms like corals, sea urchins, brittle stars, hermit crabs, snails and numerous species of fish occupy the space of this professional display aquarium. Simulated light cycles and chaotic water currents help to re-create what these animals would find in nature, allowing these organisms to thrive in their man- made environment. Whenever possible, Aquatic Art Technologies uses aquaculture organisms in each of their displays. We promote the use of such practices when consulting, designing or educating private or public potential clients.

- 13. AQUACULTURE SYSTEMS, EQUIPMENT DESIGN & FABRICATION¡ Re-circulating aquaculture systems are designed and built in many sizes and formats and are capable of supporting aquatic life ranging many different sizes, from very small organisms to very large fish like striped bass. Using state of the art filtration technology and sound biological design, Aquatic Art Technologies has the capability to produce small systems (as shown above) to larger integrated systems with a separate or common filtration system and life support computer monitoring. The re-circulating rack system shown above is a Fathead minnow (Pimephales promelas) culture system capable of producing approximately 60, 000 ¨C 100,000 fry per year depending on the culturist and other environmental factors. This aquatic organism is mainly used as a bio-monitoring organism in the field of Aquatic Toxicology. AAT has designed/built other Toxicology systems to produce bio-monitoring organisms like Mysidopsis bahia and Cyprinodon variegates. Other fish like the Japanese Medaka or the Zebra Danio can be cultured in similar rack systems and are used in the biomedical, genetics and pharmaceutical research fields.
