Continuing its leadership role as an innovator in aquatic husbandry, Aquatic Habitats announced the release of Mass Embryo Production System. Developed to dramatically improve the embryo production process, each MEPS™ has the ability to produce several thousand embryos daily.
The automatic embryo collection feature eliminates the need to handle adult zebrafish, reducing stress on the animals and saving time in the process. An optional light cycle dome and controller allow the user to program a specific photoperiod and collect zebrafish embryos at intervals offset from the main system's photoperiod.

The innovative spawning funnel provides multiple spawning sites and can be adjusted to various depths, allowing the user to capitalize on the zebrafish's natural tendency to spawn in shallow water. The smaller mini MEPS™ is also available for labs with space constraints or reduced embryo production requirements. The MEPS™ can be provided as a stand-alone system, with its own life support package, or attached to an existing rack system. This flexibility allows you to take advantage of the MEPS™ without having to make major changes to your existing system.
