Day 7 Felicia: After the first weekend

Aquatic level- the water has turned green. Our tadpole is still living, as well as the leech. There is moisture on the walls of this chamber. The snails were on the walls at the top of the water level. Algae remains on the bottom. Will there be enough algae produced to sustain life? How long with life be able to survive in this column?
Decomposition level- Mold has begun to grow in this chamber. Moisture has developed on the walls. Today we added a piece of bell pepper, green eggplant peel, potato peel. The foods added on the first day are no longer recognizable, they have begun to decay. How has the chemical composition of the chambers changed since we created them?
Terrestrial level-The plants appear to be thriving, with moisture on the walls. There is no sign of the cricket or spider we placed in there the first day. Are they hiding or no longer alive?
