So today I trained a small group to test the 80 gallon reef.

 

I took pics but think it is probably not a good idea to share w/out parent permission.

 

Here were there parameters tested 10/08/08 at 10:00 AM

 

Salinity 1.025

 

pH 8.1

 

Nitrate 0ppm

 

dkH 9

 

Calcium 430

 

We did not get to phosphates. Ran outta time. Still they loved it.

Thanks all. The kids do love it too. It is a natural teaching tool. I don't know how many times I have heard, "I wanna have a tank like that." The best part is that kids really want to help and get involved ..... no matter what grade they have in the class. That, in my opinion, is the true value. I know I have ignited some inner curiosity when the least successful students keep asking me if they can help feed or test or ask about a fish. I know at the end of the day that they have taken something away from my room.
