An aquaculture system includes a plurality of containment chambers for containing aquatic organisms, and a continuous linkage mechanism for coupling with each of the chambers, respectively. The continuous linkage mechanism is configured to move each of the chambers, respectively, about a cyclical path within a body of water. In this regard, a depth of the body of water is efficiently utilized, operational footprint is reduced, exposure to light and other nutrients is controlled, and harvesting of diverse species and/or periodic harvesting of species using planned maturation cycles becomes possible.
