A fluid of high specific gravity and viscosity stored in a desired one of tanks can be quickly transferred to the other tank with high flow rate accuracy. The present invention includes: first and second tanks (13) and (14) each configured to store a fluid (12) containing fine powder; a communication pipe (15) through which the first and second tanks (13) and (14) communicate with each other; and a transfer portion (16) configured to transfer the fluid (12) stored in a desired one of the first and second tanks to the other tank. Each of the tanks (13) and (14) includes a first chamber (19) and a second chamber (20) that are separated by a deformable dividing wall (18). Each of the first chambers (19) stores an incompressible fluid (17), and each of the second chambers (20) stores the fluid (12) having higher specific gravity and viscosity than the incompressible fluid (17). The second chambers (20) of the first and second tanks communicate with each other through the communication pipe (15). When the incompressible fluid (17) is supplied to the desired first chamber (19), the transfer portion (16) can discharge the incompressible fluid (17) from the other first chamber (19).
