The "Trout Crew" at Lack has discovered two alevin attached to one yolk sac. It is hard to say what will happen as the yolk sac is absorbed. Will there be enough nutritional value to allow both to survive to become fry? The students and staff at Lack are eager to know!
This week two alevin died leaving 291 in the tank. All of the trout eggs have hatched and are officially alevin with yolk sacs.Our mean water temperature is 49.8 degrees F. The ph has been consistent at 7.6. The students continue daily water changes through the school week.
Thoughts from the Tank Tenders:
11-17-09 Karrie Boone: Today only one died. The ph is 7.6 and the temperature is 50 degrees.
11-19-09 Connor Henry: The eggs have hatched and I clean the water every other day.
11-20-09 "The Trout Crew": The fish are getting a little bigger everyday. We have simiez twins with one yolk but two trout. They look real cool!
