The water level was 8.7 centimeters, it is .2 centimeters less than last week. The grass is 19.1 centimeters tall, it grew .1 centimeters. There is no new algae growth on the aquatic level. The water has the same turbidity as last week. There is more condensation this week on the top part of theContinue reading “Observations Week #5”

Today 3/6, our water level is 8.9 centimeters. It has decreased from last week by .4 centimeters. There is a little algae growth on the rocks at the aquatic level of our bottle. The grass is about 19 centimeters tall, and it has grown by a centimeter. The water is cloudy, but it has notContinue reading “Bottle Biome Observations #4”

2/28/20 – The water level is 9.3 centimeters. There was a little bit of algae on rocks. The grass is 18 centimeters this week. It grew 5 centimeters. The water is a little cloudy today. Condensation is present in the bottle. Rambo the fish is still living and he looks healthy. He still is swimmingContinue reading “Observations Week #3”

The water level is 9.1 centimeters. There is no algae at the bottom aquatic level. The plant grew 13 centimeters. The water is a little more cloudy and the water is a little brown from the soil in the top bottom. Transpiration occurred because the roots of the plant absorbed the water and used itContinue reading “Bottle Biome Observations Week 2”

Today, 2/14 the water level of the bottle was 3 and 1/2 inches. There was no algae growth present in the aquatic level of the biome. There was no plant growth at the top either. There was no water color changes or turbidity present. There are no indications of the water cycle that occurred. AllieContinue reading “Bottle Biome First Observations”

Today I assembled the bottle biome. First, I cleaned out two old soda bottles and cut the top of one and the bottom of one. With the bottle that has the bottom part, I placed gravel and dechlorinated water in it. With the bottle with the top, I placed it inside the bottle the otherContinue reading “Initial Observation – Building our Bottle Biome”

The aquatic biome will be tested over several weeks and I will discover how well it flourishes and what changes that need to be made.

Thanks for joining me! I am Kate Follett and I am going to research and create an aquatic bottle biome for my Aquatic Science class. “We all know what flopping is when we see it. The stuff that you see is where guys aren’t really getting hit at all and are flailing around like aContinue reading “Aquatic Bottle Biome”
