why get aquatic plants??


I'm writing this entry because the many purposes of aquatic plants people.So back to the question,why get aquatic plants??First plants like elodea and duckweed are beautiful to look at.And algae and water plants keep a healthy swap of gases in the water.These producers are especially important in aquariums and slow moving streams, because they help provide oxygen for animals in the water.These aquatic organisms also provide shelter for smaller organisms such as fish and their babies.Water plants and algae also provide food for fish and water snails.Duckweed is a favorite food for many creatures.Elodea has many leafs that are perfect for small fish to hide until they grow.So you should get some water plants today.Why shouldn't you get water plants*!!!!!!!!

ecosystem observation 3 day seven

observation 3 day seven


Today we did our third observation.It was pretty interesting.Our fish Ashley and Sweet-pea have completely torn up our elodea. Sadly one of the fish in the other groups has died because of water
problems.Also , two crickets died .They ate each other , simply because there was no food resources.Our mustard seed is finally growing, but it's one major food source.That's another reason that the other crickets ate each other. Because they had no food.Our isopods (pill bugs)
are still lazy.The have been like that every time we did an observation.Now back to the fish we are expecting Ashley to have babies. She's gotten bigger and her gravid spot has gotten darker.Our duckweed has been eaten or has died out.Hopefully it reproduces.On the other hand our snails are really active.That's pretty much it

Ecosystems/how we depend on each other

YEAH!Today we finally got our new science projects in.It looks so fun!We even have some live critters.Yesterday we built terrariums with Alfalfa,Rye Grass,Mustardseed, rocks leafs and twigs and finally dirt.In our aquarium we have gravel,elodea, algea,duckweed,snails next comes the best part . . . . . .the mosquito fish.Thats right fish.I cant belive we have real fish in our classroom.The fish look alot similar to guppies,they are supposed to multiply like them to.Anyways we have an eco- system going on,mind you this is going onin two litter bottles.well this is it bye*!!
