Fixed bottom net

Plankton net on a rigid frame, anchored to the river bottom to continuously collect drifting organisms.
The fixed bottom net samples small organisms carried by the current near the bottom of a river or along the edge of a body of water. It is useful for organisms with limited mobility or those that are weakened, for example following poisoning. A rigid stainless steel or aluminum frame holds a conical Nitex net tapering to a narrow end that holds a collection bucket. Adjustable metal rods hold the device to the bottom. The net remains in place for extended collections, which is suitable for studies on the presence or seasonal variation of species, both in research and in environmental monitoring. The bucket unscrews to retrieve the sample without moving the frame.

Une très belle expérience. Notre besoin était particulier et Francis à bien compris l’idée. Ses recommandations pour le type de filet et sa confection nous ont permis d’obtenir le résultats désiré. Merci à Filmar!

J’ai été très bien servie par l’entreprise Les Industries Filmar. Ma commande de filets maillants était juste à sa réception à nos bureaux et ils l’ont réalisée plus vite que le délai demandé. Je recommande fortement cette compagnie! Merci aux Industries Filmar!

Amazing service! We purchased a plankton net and closing mechanism from Filmar on behalf of the Bamfield Marine Sciences Centre. Francis and his team were very professional and helpful throughout the process, and all the items were very high quality.
