January 12, 2017 - Taking care of our eggs..

Moretown's TIC team monitoring and caring for our eggs.









































DATA POINTS:
As of 1/12/17 our status;
*We have lost 5 eggs since getting our eggs on January 6, 2017.  Our water tests let us know that our aquarium is safe for our fish, but we need make sure we keep checking.

*Our water temp is 50.00 - we are bringing it up to 55 by the beginning of next week.

Our Thoughts:

 I think this experience has  fun and interesting. I am learning a lot about how to take care our  fish.   MY

My experience has been awesome.  Testing the water has been fun and interesting.    Also  putting the eggs in the nets was nerve racking because I did not want to hurt them.

The eggs were small - we needed to use a suction jar to
pick them up to place them in our tank
