Inland Cage I & Inland Cage II
  Inland Cage
Specification : 5.25*5.25*2.0 meters
Capacity : 1.2 ~ 1.5 ton / cage
8 sets / 20 feet container
Nylon knotless net with mesh of 1 cm


  Applications and Characteristics:  
  1. Fry taming and Conditioning
   
  1. Easy accessible for fry taming and condition.
  2. More efficient in ponds utilization.
  3. A variety of fishes can be stocked in different cages to be raised in the same pond so as to minimize the need to occupy different ponds.
  1. Polyculture
  1. In different cages of the same pond, one can raise fishes with different feeding habits (carnivores, herbivores or omnivores) without the fear of experiencing mortalities caused by cannibalistic behavior among the fishes.
  2. The farmer's utilization of the working capital can be increased by raising fish species with different grow out period (long vs. short) in the same pond.
  3. A balanced pond water environment can be established and maintained by properly growing different species of fishes in the same pond.
  4. Also applicable for the culture of fish in the pond and oysters in the cage, or raise the shrimp in the pond and fish in the cage.
     
  1. Increase the Culture Quality
   
  1. For the live fish market, marketable size fish can be harvested on cage at a time to increase the survival rates of the live fishes during transport.
  2. Improve the quality of the harvest fish, prior to harvest, fishes are normally not fed. Under normal pond condition, starved fishes will tend to go to the pond bottom to feed on mud or even detritus something introducing an off muddy flavor to the body. This would not be possible under cage
    conditions.
  3. More efficient FCRs to reduce feed cost. Energy (feed) can be more efficiently converted to meat due to the limited space of the cage.
         
   
  1. More convenient in aquaculture operation
  1. Save time and labor. Two persons can harvest the fish inside a cage without difficulty.
  2. Grading the size of the fishes efficiently. By using the correct mesh net and properly manipulation the net during feeding, grading the fishes can be easily undertaken.
  3. When the fishes inside the pond are not yet of harvestable size, one can very quick start a new crop by raising the same or different species inside a cage.
  4. Easy to move fish from one pond to another.
  1. Easy for disease treatment
   
  1. Sick or diseased fishes can be segregated inside a floating cage for observation or treatment.
  2. By installing a tarpaulin (precut and approximating the dimensions of the net) inside the net, one can isolate pond water inside the cage and apply chemicals for treatment of diseases. Volume of chemical used in drastically reduced due to the reduce volume of water.
  1. Easy in recording data
   
  1. Feeding rate.
  2. Growth rate.
  3. Observations for the development of diseases.
