Fish Tags
Farmers and researchers have found that fish tags are one of the best ways to identify individual fish. They can be used to distinguish male fish from females and broods from the rest of the stock. They can mark genetic strains and individual fish for research and growth studies.
We offer the popular T bar anchor tags in both flag and number styles. They are easy to insert, cause minimal stress and can remain in the fish for years.

The fish tags are easy to apply and stay securely in the fish. We use them to track brood groups and have seen consistent results in identifying individual fish. The number style is especially helpful for large-scale research.
Sam Edmunds –
The orange and black number tags are clearly visible and durable. We’ve used them for over a year and they still hold well. The flag style is useful for visual identification but can’t be labeled.

Great product for fish farming. The T bar design is secure and causes little stress to the fish. We use both flag and number styles depending on the study needs.
