Day 2 Maryanne

Well, at least Tad survived the night in his new environment. The water is still clear and the aquatic plant appears to be green and doing well. He has not moved hardly at all today. Could it be that the water is too cold for him? Moving up to the decomposition section it is noted that there is very little condensation. There is no soil in there. Could it be that the material is acting like a filter that lets the water flow straight down to the pond? The upper chamber has collected quite a bit of condensation on the sides of the column at the top surrounding the air. There also are even greater amounts of condensation on the sides of the column at the area surrounding the soil. The spider and grasshopper could not be spotted today. Perhaps they have found a niche in the vegetation.
