Product Information Product code : ZB11TK

Tecniplast zebrafish tanks are built in-house to ensure quality, durability, and easy maintenance. Available in 1.1 L, 2.4 L, 3.5 L, and 8.0 L sizes, these tanks feature Clean Tank Technology, which combines an all-blue design to limit algae growth with a sloped, V-channel bottom that funnels debris directly to the siphon point. This system keeps tanks cleaner for longer and reduces the time needed for routine maintenance. A patented siphon cleaning system at tank level further enhances debris removal, offering a more efficient solution than traditional baffle systems. Made from FDA-approved blue polycarbonate, this tank is also available in a clear and a polysulfone version. Dividers cannot be used when using net baffles.

V-Channel Tank Bottom

Tecniplast's zebrafish tanks are engineered with a unique V-channel bottom that streamlines debris removal and supports healthier aquatic environments. Unlike flat-bottom designs, the sloped V-channel guides waste directly to the siphon point, ensuring faster and more efficient cleaning. This innovation reduces the buildup of residue, keeping tanks cleaner for longer periods and minimizing the frequency of routine maintenance. By maintaining clearer water and a more stable environment, the V-channel bottom helps promote zebrafish well-being and research consistency. Combined with Tecniplast’s Clean Tank Technology, it provides laboratories with a durable, low-maintenance solution that saves both time and labor. Available across multiple tank sizes, this feature delivers unmatched reliability for any zebrafish research facility.

Blue Polycarbonate

Tecniplast zebrafish tanks are constructed from durable blue polycarbonate plastic, chosen specifically to support both animal welfare and research quality. The blue tint limits light penetration, which helps reduce algae growth and keeps tanks cleaner for longer periods. This creates a more stable, controlled environment for zebrafish while minimizing the need for frequent maintenance. The material is FDA-approved, ensuring it is safe, non-toxic, and highly resistant to wear in demanding research settings. By reducing visual stress for the fish, the blue design also supports more natural behavior and healthier populations. Combined with Tecniplast’s advanced engineering, the blue polycarbonate body offers an ideal environment for both the researchers and the fish!

Benefits of a Sloped Design

Both the Tecniplast 1.7 L Breeding Tank and the Z-Park incorporate a sloped design to closely mimic zebrafish natural habitats and encourage positive breeding habits. In the wild, zebrafish prefer to spawn in shallow water, and the sloped structure recreates this condition by leading the fish to swim upward toward the top of the slope, where the water appears shallower. This instinctive behavior stimulates more frequent and successful breeding events compared to flat-bottom systems. By guiding eggs safely away from adults and into collection areas, the slope improves egg recovery rates by up to 30%, significantly boosting research productivity. In addition, the design reduces stress on the fish, supporting healthier broodstock and more consistent spawning cycles. Together, these features make the sloped design a proven advantage for laboratories aiming to maximize breeding efficiency and reliability.
