Floating Upweller System (FLUPSY)

Hoopers' signature seed grow-out system. Our floating upweller grows large quantities of seed while remaining user friendly and customizable.

Description

Hoopers Island Oyster Co’s floating upwellers are specially designed in-house for low maintenance and high efficiency. The unique design incorporates a basket/silo combination to allow easy access to your seed and extend the oysters further into the water column creating more water pressure and higher water flow.
