Thresher tanK-pump m use. The water reaches the pump through the hose at the left and is delivered to the net through the hose at the right. The net cone is seen supported by a rectangular wooden float. (After Kofoid.) (c) The thresher tanh-pump, a double-acting force pump with two cylinders each six by nine inches, has been used by Kofoid (1897). The mode of using the pump is shown (Fig. 23). This pump is fastened to the boat and is too heavy to be carried or to be used apart from a permanent mounting. 3. The Water Bottle. To obtain small samples of water for the study of the nannoplankton a water bottle may be used. Many complicated and expensive forms of these bottles have been devised (see Helland-Hansen) for use at all depths in the sea. The bottle described by Theiler appears to be the simplest and least expensive of them. For use in fresh water a Meyer's bottle (Fig. 24) serves fairly well and is easily made. A stout glass bottle of one or.
