Inside the Crab Pod: Smarter Systems for Happy Shellfish
At Todd Fish Tech, innovation is what keeps us ahead — and our Crab Pod is a perfect example of how thoughtful design can make life easier for anyone holding shellfish including fishermen, fish merchants or fishmongers.
Well designed details for top condition stock
Every detail of this system has been designed to keep shellfish healthy, reduce maintenance, and save energy. In the base of the tank, you’ll find air and water channels that circulate filtered water and oxygen evenly around the entire system. This ensures that every corner of the tank benefits from clean, oxygen-rich water — keeping your stock in top condition.
Crab Pod filtration including our new Algal Scrubber
Inside the filter section, energy-efficient recirculation pumps keep things moving smoothly, while fine filter socks remove even the smallest particles of waste, sand, or grit. It’s a clean, low-maintenance setup that helps you focus on your business rather than constant cleaning.
For our export customer who plans to hold sea urchins, we’ve added an algal scrubber to help manage nutrients naturally — just one example of how we tailor systems to meet specific needs.
Beneath that, the biological filter quietly does its job, supporting the essential bacteria that keep water quality stable.
We also include a UV steriliser to remove bacteria and viruses, a mechanical sponge filter, a sediment trap for easy cleaning, and a protein skimmer — a feature we fit as standard on all our systems, including the Lobster Pod and the Crab Pod.
Reliable and Sustainable Shellfish Holding
Every component of the Crab Pod works together to create a reliable, sustainable environment for shellfish, whether you’re a fisherman landing your daily catch, a merchant storing stock, or a fishmonger looking to keep produce in premium condition.
