Basic fish dissection is fun and easy with our preserved perch. Great for observing both the external anatomy of fish (such as eyes, mouth, gills, paired and axial fins) and internal organs (stomach, intestines, liver, etc.). Each perch specimen is 7-9" long. Available in singles with a discount once you order 10.
Specimens are individually vacuum-sealed. Initially preserved in formaldehyde to fix tissues. Specimens are then rinsed with water and packed in a low-odor, non-toxic holding solution.
Store specimens in an area of room temperature away from direct sunlight. Do not freeze or expose to high temperatures (more than 85 degrees F). Specimens will last 6 months when left unopened. After opening, the specimen should be placed in a zip-top bag and may be kept for up to one month.
NOTE: Tray and dissecting tools sold separately. See our Biology Page for tools and other items.
