1st day of mini aquarium
In my botany class today we created our mini aquarium. I chose to use the water from container 7. We started making the aquarium by getting a small glass container that was glued at three sides, we also got a base to hold it and a top to cover the aquarium. We then put our choice of which water from a specific place to put in our glass aquarium. Like i said before i chose the water from container 7. We added a minuscule amount of soil and top water. To keep the creatures alive in the container we also added water plants to create oxygen. We then took the container and looked at them under a microscope to compare what we found in every individual container. I discovered small round, what look like shrimp, nematodes, sifters from one of the plants that were added to the container, and what i believe to be a snail in its egg case still developing.
