摘要 |
The invention relates to a device for rearing shellfish such as oysters in an aquatic medium, which can be suspended in an aquatic medium, comprising a support-structure for the spats enabling them to be immersed and removed from sea water during the classic growth and grow-out phase in a shellfish basin. According to the invention, the support structure is made up of a set of alveolar mooring supports (100) which are disposed in tiers around a common axis, made out of an elastic material which can become deformed by increasing the size of the opening of the alveolar structure (110) as a result of the pushing effect of the endpiece-hinge element of a spat which is forcibly engaged in said alveolar structure, whereupon it subsequently resumes its initial form when the size of the opening is reduced in order to stretch the endpiece-hinge element for the prehension of said spat which is kept in a suspended position on the alveolar support (100). The invention can be used to moor oyster splats for rearing during the growth and grow-out phase. |
