Product Information Product code : ZBP16CP

The Tecniplast Z-Park tank is designed to improve zebrafish welfare and maximize efficiency in aquatic facilities. With a 16 L capacity, increased width, and expanded surface area, the Z-Park can house up to 150–200 adult fish in healthier, more enriched conditions. A dedicated spawning platform with a sliding tray makes embryo collection simple and efficient, while integrated dividers and optimized water quality during spawning support both research outcomes and fish well-being. The tank also features a gravel-like substrate bottom, scientifically shown to enhance zebrafish enrichment and natural behavior. Fully retrofittable onto existing Tecniplast racks, the Z-Park offers a flexible, high-performance solution for zebrafish facilities of any size.

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.
