At Tecniplast, innovation often starts with listening. Developed in collaboration with a customer and shaped by real-world facility needs, InsideOut is a new in-tank environmental enrichment solution designed to support fish welfare while maintaining the practicality, safety, and consistency required in modern aquatic research facilities.
Inspired by natural aquatic environments, InsideOut mimics hanging vegetation and creates sheltered areas within the tank, encouraging exploration and helping reduce aggressive interactions among fish. By providing enrichment directly inside the tank, the solution promotes a more stimulating environment without disrupting daily husbandry routines.
Beyond animal welfare, InsideOut was designed with users in mind. Compatible with standard 3.5 L and 8.0 L tanks, it is easy to install, does not interfere with feeding procedures, and can be easily washed and autoclaved. Its practical design allows facilities to integrate enrichment into existing workflows with minimal effort.
Safety and reliability have also been central to the product's development. InsideOut contains no materials that could generate microplastics or release chemicals into the water, while its design preserves water flow and the self-cleaning performance of the tank.
Perhaps most importantly, InsideOut addresses one of the key challenges in aquatic research: standardization. By offering a consistent and easy-to-implement enrichment solution, it helps facilities adopt common practices that support more reproducible research outcomes across studies and institutions.
