Preparing for Aquarium Adventures

Today we prepared for our trip to Aquarium Adventures on Monday. At Aquarium Adventures, we will be purchasing fish, fixtures, plants, and other objects based on what we need and what we want to add to our aquarium.

We decided today as a team to make a few adjustments to our plan,
  • We decided to stick to smaller fish as it would look great to have a large school of small fish swimming around our large Amazon Sword plants.
  • We are going to take a look online as to what small fish/plants we are going to purchase on Monday. We plan to try to focus on getting fish which are less than an inch in size and plants that will add a "meadow" feel or a "jungle" look to our aquarium.
  • We learned today that to grow Glossostigma successfully, we would need about 80 Watts worth of light. We plan to design or bring in a light fixture with Fluorescent Day-Adjusted Blue light bulbs to provide the light we need.
  • Once we get to Aquarium Adventures, we've decided to focus more on our plants before our fish as we still are unsure as to what we wish to purchase.
 Later today we will be posting facts about our fish/plants, stay tuned!
