Swim tunnels<\/a>\u00a0from\u00a0Loligo\u00ae<\/sup>\u00a0Systems<\/a>\u00a0can be used to test aquatic animals in a controlled flow and environment. Each swim tunnel is designed to contain a swimming fish inside a test section large enough to allow for \u201cfree swimming\u201d, while keeping the total water volume of the (closed) entire swim chamber small enough for reliable\u00a0oxygen consumptions measurements.<\/a>\u00a0The swim chamber sits submerged in a surrounding water bath for\u00a0temperature control purposes. The transparent material surrounding the test section provides a clear view of the swimming animal(s), e.g., for\u00a0video filming<\/a>\u00a0from various angles.<\/p>\n

Many purposes.<\/strong>\u00a0We have various sizes of swim tunnels available, and we offer swim tunnels specifically for video filming, for\u00a0swimming individuals or groups of zebrafish fry-juveniles<\/a>\u00a0(or similar) or with a built-in underwater treadmill. Our swim tunnels can effectively swim a large variety of aquatic animals from larvae to juvenile and adult. One example is the\u00a0170 mL swim tunnel<\/a>\u00a0which is an ideal for adult zebrafish. Another example is the\u00a0185 L swim tunnel<\/a>\u00a0which works great for adult Atlantic salmon or schools of smaller fish.<\/p>\n

Oxygen consumption.\u00a0<\/strong>The oxygen measurements can be done using our\u00a0Witrox oxygen instrument<\/a>. The Witrox works with fiber optic oxygen sensors (i.e., optodes), and transmit data via Bluetooth communication to your Windows PC for a wireless interface. The Witrox also includes a high precision\u00a0temperature probe<\/a>\u00a0to allow for accurate real-time temperature compensation of oxygen values \u2013 a must in obtaining reliable oxygen consumption measurements.<\/p>\n

User-friendly software.\u00a0<\/strong>Whether you are measuring maximum metabolic rates, comparing Ucrit values or simply want to force swim your animals for behavior studies or measure oxygen content in the water, our user-friendly\u00a0AutoResp\u00ae software<\/a>\u00a0for Windows will be a helpful tool in getting your swim tunnel data.<\/p>\n

Easy setup.\u00a0<\/strong>Setting up your swim tunnel is simple. Our\u00a0step-by-step quick guides<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0instructional videos<\/a>\u00a0take you through each step to make sure that your swim tunnel is set up correctly. If you get stuck or have any questions, our friendly support staff is ready to assist you via\u00a0email, phone or remote sessions<\/a>.<\/p>\n
