Abstract:

A fish hatchery assembly, to be used to segregate a fish tank into a portion for larger fish to swim and a portion where newly born fish may be kept safe, without requiring the removal of the mother fish to a separate area, the assembly including a filtering panel disposed horizontally and having a corrugated type configuration including a plurality of upper apexes and lower apexes, a vertical wall attached at a proximate end of the horizontal filtering panel and extending downward to contact a bottom surface of the fish tank, and a separator plate to keep larger fish from swiming above the filtering panel. The assembly contacts opposite inner sides of the fish tank to effectively divide the fish tank into two compartments, and includes a plurality of slots extending along each of the upper apexes of the filtering panel such that newly born fish may pass therethrough, but larger fish may not.
