ABSTRACT:
A fish cage, comprising: a rigid hexagonal frame enclosed in a grating skin and including a feed tube extending through said grating skin for providing feed to the interior of the cage. The delivery of feed from the cage through the tube is controlled by a control module that may also control a water flush system for flushing feed through the tube. A novel fastener, comprising a back, a nut-supporting length of tubing, an internally threaded nut permanently mounted in the tubing, and a bolt that can be threaded into the nut. The back extends beyond the tubing, so that the back engages the grating skin when the fastener is in use.
