Fish farming in novel floating flexible containments is a promising proposition to minimise the CAPEX of the current floating closed containment tank technology. Floating tanks have tangible benefits over the use of open net cages and a lower CAPEX should incentivise fish farmers to adopt this technology faster. This short-communication suggests future research activities focusing on understanding and predicting the structural responses and the associated stresses in the flexible bag material with the view to optimise and improve flexible containment tank designs.
