[GSAS-Member] School Science Project



Hi all-

My daughter Emma is going to be doing a class science
project. She goes to Enumclaw Middle School. It will
be probably be for most of the school year. Taking
notes about different breeds of fish, on their
behavoir and environment, that sort of thing.

So I thought I could come here and ask for a some
donations. Such as tank {with hood and light} 20 to 30
gal, heater, substrate, preferably sand, maybe some
plants that are easy. Filter and decore I can provide.

Now as to fish, we were hoping to do something in
three stages....showing the diffence between live
bearers, egg layers, and mouth brooders. So they can
see 3 distinct different environments, and 3 different
kind of perosnalities in the fish. And the different
care each kind need.

Example:
Live bearers could be guppies, and have a comunity
tank with some tetra's, and cory cats mixed in, and
possibly a small bristol nose pleco. With a few plants
{needed}, bog wood, and some rock.

Egg layers could be convicts, since they will breed
anywhere...LoL they could see the eggs, how long they
take tobe free swimming, that sort of thing. Along
with the bristol nose. Just rock for decore.

Mouth brooders, could be another cichlid,  probably
african since I have them. The red tops breed quiet
easily. Along as well with the bristol nose. Again
jsut rock for decore

All three of these would breed rather easily and are
fish that wouldn't spook easily. 

Any help would be greatly appretiated!

Thanks!!

Trish

PS of course Steev their will be an artical or two in
this for the news letter!
