What is an Aquapod?

According to Ocean Farm Technologies, an Aquapod is a unique containment system for marine aquaculture. Aquapods allow sea animals to be farmed in a natural setting; they are comprised of multiple triangle nets which form a spheroid. Aquapods can be either fully or partially submerged in the ocean.

Aquapods are designed to maintain shape and stability even under wild sea conditions. Aquapod nets vary greatly in size from 115 to 3,600 cubic meters, making them suitable for commercial as well as personal use. Galvanized steel wire mesh holds the nets together and ensures that any captured fish are securely contained.
