Creating a Micro Aquarium

Micro aquarium was created on Tuesday October 15th.

The water source used in my micro aquarium was 12. water pool below spring, Fountain City Park west of Broadway at Hotel Avenue, Knoxville TN. The water there is full shade and spring feed pond. (McFarland, 2013)

The type of plants added to the micro aquarium are pictured below with tag cards of what they are and where they were collected. (Botany Lab Fall, 2013)
