Artificial Fish Habitat Video Library
Explore artificial fish habitat through more than 15 years and thousands of hours of underwater freshwater observations filmed while diving with scuba gear. Watch fish use dense reclaimed PVC protection, follow installation demonstrations and explore Fishiding’s ten-part artificial fish habitat research series.
This real underwater footage documents artificial fish habitat in freshwater ponds, lakes, reservoirs and hatcheries. See intricate protection for copepods, fry and forage fish, periphyton growth on submerged surfaces, and larger openings used by mature freshwater fish.

DOCUMENTED BELOW THE SURFACE
Watch artificial fish habitat become part of the freshwater environment
Fishiding’s video library pairs practical installation help with years of underwater freshwater observations recorded while diving with scuba gear. The footage shows how dense refuge, open travel lanes and textured reclaimed PVC surfaces work together underwater.
