Observation Of A Betta Fish

The purpose of this project was for students to observe how a Betta fish could

survive in a habitat made from a 3 liter Ozarka water bottle. The hypothesis stated

that in the decomposition part of the eco-column the student would try to raise the

pH. The student was supposed to add substances for the worms to decompose but

the student didn’t add anything and the pH stayed at a 7.0. The only thing needed to

create this project was to buy a 3 liter Ozarka bottle. This student was in charge of

the decomposer section. . The decomposition section was made up of soil and

worms. The student had to make a trap door so they could check the temperature

and the pH. Then added holes so the worms could breathe. There were 3 sections,

the aquatic, decomposition, and terrestrial. The decomposition people had to check

The first step to check aquatic nitrate was to rinse the pipette, fill it up with 5mL of

water from the aquatic section and put it in a test tube, the next thing they had to
