Week 1: Setting up the Project

Today in biology, we set up our plant aquarium to start our term project. For my experiment, I filled the aquarium up with French Broad River, Seven Islands Wildlife Refuge, Kelly Lane , Knox Co. Tennessee. Partial shade exposure French Broad River Water Shed N35 56.742 W83 41.628 841 ft 10/9/2011 Cladophora sp. alga in family Cladophoraceae.
I have already noticed worm-like organisms swimming around in the water. Several mosquito larva are attached to plant B. Several worm-like organisms are moving around in the plant, as well as in the mud. There is also a circular organism that occasionally swims rapidly over the dirt. Plant A shows relatively no sign of activity so far.
Over the span of the next four weeks, I will be checking on the plant at least every Tuesday.
