Answers: Can you use an old cistern under your house to keep live fish?
- Cistern aquaculture
- Sturgeon care in home tanks
- Water filtration for aquaculture

What it concludes
- Rainwater collection provides clean water for an indoor cistern without needing a municipal supply.
- Earth acts as a great insulator, keeping underground cistern water temperature stable year-round.
- Harvesting sturgeon eggs for caviar is fatal to the fish.
- Coldwater fish like sturgeon require high oxygen levels and constant swimming to breathe.
- River rock substrate prevents pockets of gas from building up in an enclosed underground tank.
