Week 2

On Friday October 21, 2011 "ONE" Beta Food Pellet was inserted into each microaquarium. 
"Atison's Betta Food" made by Ocean Nutrition, Aqua Pet Americas, 3528 West 500 South, Salt Lake City, UT 84104. Ingredients: Fish meal, wheat flower, soy meal, krill meal, minerals, vitamins and preservatives. Analysis: Crude Protein 36%; Crude fat 4.5%; Crude Fiber 3.5%; Moisture 8% and Ash 15%.  The fish meal ingredient should contain nitrogen which will provide an energy source for the microorganisms to become very active.  Nitrogen given to microorganisms is like giving candy or chocolate to a small child and will cause them to be very excited and overly active.  I anticipate than within 7-14 days the microorganisms will be the most active so far for the project.  There should be some really good pictures available next week!!
