A recirculated marine aquaculture system for growing crustaceans within a
body of water includes a wholly submerged chamber situated in the body of
water having a filtering wall connecting the chamber floor and ceiling
permitting water to flow from the water body into the first chamber while
excluding particulate materials. A second chamber is situated above the
first chamber having a plurality of water outlets below the body of water
upper surface, and a top having an air inlet above the body of water
upper surface. A stand pipe has an open lower end opening into the first
chamber and a plurality of laterally directed openings into the top of
the second chamber. An impeller coupled to the stand pipe moves filtered
water from the first chamber through the laterally directed openings into
the second chamber adjacent to the air inlet, the water exiting the
second chamber into the body of water through the plurality of water
outlets after mixing with air drawn in through the air inlet.
