An improved minnow container that is adapted to carry water and oxygen therein when in an upright position is disclosed. The container comprises a water receiving and retaining chamber that is substantially open at its bottom end and has a first opening in the top thereof and an oxygen receiving and retaining chamber that is substantially open at its bottom end and is sealed above the open bottom end so as to preclude the escape of oxygen therefrom when the container is in its upright position. A barrier means physically separates the oxygen receiving and retaining chamber and the water receiving and retaining chamber so as to preclude the passage of fluid between the water receiving and retaining chamber and the oxygen receiving and retaining chamber. The barrier means terminates at a lower boundary in a passageway that is generally below the barrier means. The passageway connects the water receiving and retaining chamber in fluid communication with the oxygen receiving and retaining chamber. When the container is in use in its upright position, the oxygen receiving and retaining chamber contains oxygen, the passageway contains water, and the water receiving and retaining chamber contains water above the level of the passageway, and the oxygen is precluded from exiting the oxygen receiving and retaining chamber. The container is adapted to pass oxygen from the oxygen receiving and retaining chamber through the passageway and into the water receiving and retaining chamber, and concurrently to pass water from the water receiving and retaining chamber through the passageway and into the oxygen receiving and retaining chamber, when the container is rotated from its upright position to a fully rotated position, whereat the oxygen receiving and retaining chamber is substantially filled with water, which is held therein by ambient air pressure in the water receiving and retaining chamber. Oxygen is then added into the oxygen receiving and retaining chamber.
