Week Nine
November 4, 2013
Water: The water in our ecosystem is still clear, and there is lots of condensation in the bottle.
Elodea: The
elodea is still floating in the water. The oldest section of the elodea is now yellowing.
Snails: One of our snails is floating in the elodea. We think that this snail is probably deceased. The other snail is still stuck to the bottle near the bottom and looks alive.
Daphnia: The
daphnia are still not visible, although any time the ecosystem bottle
is moved, you can see tons of daphnia exoskeletons swirling around. That
said, we haven't seen live daphnia since the second week.
Seeds/Leaves: All of our plants are brown or on their way to being brown. One of our bean plants is covered in a white, caterpillar-esque mold.
Soil: The soil level is really low. There are two roots protruding from a bean plant. Our soil seems to be thoroughly depleted. Overall, our ecosystem seems to have run its course.
