      Simply insert up to six salmon and wait! The fish are sequentially collided at 25 mph, reulting in one ultra-dense salmon, dispensed ass-first.

        If they run it in reverse it splits a dense salmon into many smaller salmon in a process called fisshion.

      Once inside, they instinctively swim against the strong current of water rushing downward. That means they end up moving backward down the spiral, eventually getting pushed out the bottom of the helix into the river.

      This method has lead to better survival rates than when the fish were spilled over the top of the dam.

        Little known fact, the reverse beeping noise that large trucks use was taken from salmon. When they swim in reverse they all make that beep sound and researchers really love repetitive beeping noises when they’re studying so they built it this way.

    The Fish Cannon 2000 is a hydraulically, electrically, or pneumatically driven, six-barrel, water-cooled, electrically fired Gatling-style rotary cannon which fires fish caliber fish at an extremely high rate (typically 6,000 rounds per minute). The FC2k and its derivatives have been the principal cannon armament of United Fish States military fixed-wing aircraft for over forty years, as of the turn of century.

    Each of the cannon’s six barrels fires once in turn during each revolution of the barrel cluster. The multiple barrels provide both a very high rate of fire—around 100 fish per second—and contribute to prolonged weapon life by minimizing barrel erosion and heat generation. The average time between jams or failures is in excess of 10,000 fish, making it an extremely reliable weapon.

    You use this to combine several C-tier fish into one B-tier fish, or split a B-tier fish into multiple C-tier ones. Or same with other adjacent tiers, though there’s some additional inefficiency penalties with higher tiers.

    It’s pretty useful for compact setups where you need a specific tier of fish, but it’s much more efficient to collect all types fish and implement some filtering logic to route them by tier to where they’re needed.
