'''Cryotanks''' were a means of preserving organics, dead or alive, for long periods of time.

In [[16 ABY/Legends|16 ABY]], a [[New Republic Security Force|Republic Security]] officer was caught holding eleven [[Galactic Empire/Legends|Imperial]] corpses still in their uniforms in cryotanks in a hangar on [[Derra IV]]. His plans were to wait until his son was old enough to be told what happened to his mother, and then give him any weapon to take revenge on them with.

The [[Kerestian/Legends|Kerestians]] launched several dozen [[Colony ship/Legends|colony ships]] a [[Standard century/Legends|century]] before their [[Star/Legends|star]] began to cool. Because the ships only had [[sublight drive]]s, the Kerestians were placed in [[Suspended animation/Legends|suspended animation]] within cryotanks.<ref name="GG12">''[[Galaxy Guide 12: Aliens — Enemies and Allies]]''</ref>
