UNSPSC 52141806: Fish basin or tank

A transparent basin used to keep ornamental fish or fancy fish such as gold fish and tropical fish.

UNSPSC 52141806 Fish basin or tank is a Commodity code covering specialized aquatic equipment for fish handling, processing, and transport operations. State and local procurement activity under this code centers on equipment directly supporting fish hatchery operations and marine resource management — fish pumps, dewatering systems, transport tanks, and associated handling apparatus designed to minimize injury to live fish during processing and movement. The Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife, county marine and aquatic resource agencies, and state fish and game departments represent the primary issuing bodies, along with specialized cooperative purchasing arrangements that include law enforcement and multi-jurisdictional equipment frameworks.

Recent activity is sparse and geographically concentrated. The Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife posted a sole source procurement in February 2026 for an Aqua-Life Harvester system — an 8-inch gas-powered fish pump, dewatering truck loading mobile tower, and associated hose and fittings valued at $112,060.16 for the Willamette Fish Hatchery, with award to Magic Valley Heli-Arc & Manufacturing, Inc. based on equipment compatibility and operational integration requirements. Chatham County, Georgia solicited competitive bids in March 2026 for two new Mercury outboard motors designated for Marine Patrol operations, due May 4, 2026. A Sourcewell cooperative purchasing RFP posted in May 2026 for law enforcement equipment nominally referenced this code but does not reflect actual fish hatchery or aquatic equipment procurement. The code shows limited recent activity; procurement demand appears concentrated in Oregon and adjacent West Coast states where fish hatchery operations drive equipment replacement and upgrade cycles.
