ABSTRACT:
A floatable container apparatus for harvesting brine shrimp eggs is disclosed in one presently preferred embodiment of the present invention as including a buoyant container assembly having one or more ballast tanks to provide a means for raising and lowering the container in relation to the surface of the water. In addition, the container assembly comprises a collection reservoir having an internal periphery sufficient for collecting a mixture of water, brine shrimp eggs, and other debris. In operation, the container assembly may be partially submerged by introducing water into at least one ballast tank. Accordingly, a openable panel may be disposed in an open position to allow for the introduction of the floating mixture into the collection reservoir. Similarly, after a sufficient quantity of the mixture has been collected, the front panel of the container assembly may be disposed in a closed position which restricts additional fluid passage. The water within the ballast tank may then be removed and interchangeably ventilated with air, thereby increasing the buoyancy of the container. Disposed in fluid communication with an opening formed in the container assembly, an extraction assembly provides a means for extracting excess water and a meaningful portion of the unwanted debris from the mixture in the reservoir and transporting the excess water and unwanted debris back into the body of water from where it was collected. The remaining mixture of water and brine shrimp eggs housed within the container assembly may be then delivered to at least one porous container.
