The concept and design of this fish display system is to present the fish to the customer in a way that makes the fish easily visible in the tank, by providing good water quality and clarity through an efficient filter, and easily maintained tanks.
MultiVats are modular and allow for speedy installation with flexibility in layout design.
They can be supplied as multiple tanks with centralised filtration or single units with integral filter or the customers own filtration system can be used. Installation can be an in house project or our team of experienced fitters can do the job.

The display tanks stand in steel support framework with adjustable height feet. Standard cladding is ply fixed to the steel frame and treated with a satin finish waterproof paint or wood stain. Other cladding is available. The inflow pipe work at the rear of the tank is covered by a 250mm high detachable 'splashback' which is suitable for attaching point of sale material

Water enters each bay from a tap, the cascading action of the flow aerating the water as it fills. This water leaves the bay through the stand pipe. This has a dual function, of drawing water from the bottom of the vat and skimming.

Display tanks can be made in various lengths from 1000mm to 3600mm long. Each tank can be made up with different numbers of bays in each. The Standard 2400mm tank can be supplied with one to five bays. Any combination of tanks can be used with the system to give versatility in displaying of different sizes and species of fish . All MultiVats can be supplied with night covers to prevent the fish jumping out overnight, or anti jump nets. A full system installation service is available. For smaller installations we can manufacture self contained display tanks and filter combined, with multiple bays these are particularly suitable for displaying cold water fancies, and smaller specimens. Vat cleaning: Regular cleaning of the bays with a soft cloth or sponge will ensure that deposits will not build up, and help keep them looking in top condition.

A typical filtration system for two to three multivats will include, biological filter with media and lid, Ultra violet clarifyer, sand filter, sand filter media, with multiport valve, surface pump, inlet, outlet and drain down valves, all pipework. Masterseal watertight switches to operate pump and UV. The filter system can be adjacent to or remote from the multivats.
