Set-up

So we set up our MicroAquariums by getting the already glued together pieces of glass, the base and the top for it. After getting these we then added our color-coded stickers to designate which aquarium was ours. My colors were orange, blue, and blue(from top to bottom). We then added in our water samples. Adding in from the bottom of the containers 1st, then the middle and then the top. My water source was #10, being from the water pool below a natural spring in Lynnhurst Cemetery off of Adair Drive in Knox Co, TN. The water was in partial shade. It was at teh following latitude and longitudinal coordinates: N36 01.357 W83 55.731 958 ft. And was collected on 10/12/2009. We then added in some plants for decoration in our aquariums. I put in both plants A and B. Plant A was Amblystegium varium. While Plant B was a carnivorous plant.
