About Us
Mission Statement
Redd Zone is dedicated to advancing the development of hatchery incubation equipment and protocols that reduce the environmental footprint of typical production hatcheries and improve the performance of restoration hatcheries. Our focus is decreasing the mishandling of eggs and fry to reduce cumulative stressors, thereby producing healthier robust fry that most closely emulate wild fish.
Our innovations in early incubation reduce water use, allow for temperature adjustment and eliminate the need for using harsh chemicals for the prophylactic treatment of fungus. From individual incubators to fully enclosed instant hatcheries we address the needs of projects of any size. Our staff has decades of experience in propagation programs throughout the United States and Canada.
