On this day we went of and created our Terrarium for the first time, we had several of the things we need to create the terrarium however there are still some that are missing so we couldn't do anything for the rest of the day, but we did add water to the plants to make them live longer, and then we cleanse our active carbon. later on before the start of the second period there was an earthquake. It was about a 6.4 Earthquake, it didn't lasted that long and we only felt a little shake, nothing much. but we were lifting the terrarium so my group and I was kind of afraid if it fell, it would be fatal to our project.

On this day, we had most of everything we started to pour the gravel inside the tank, then afterwards we cleanse the active carbon and proceed to cut it afterwards. After we cut it we pour it inside the tank, that was the second layer after the gravel. Now after that we should've pour sand into it and there was sand there too but wasn't the sand we were looking for. We need to use the vulcanic black sand but we didn't knew about that cause if we use other sand our animals could die cause of different sands. So what we did afterwards was we level the plain in the terrarium and we clean our station and the ground. We only made it to the second tier.

On this day we went on and try to put everything inside the tank, in hopes everything is ready but it turns out the vulcanic sand is still unavailable and because of it being unavailable we then try to go on and proceed to use pebbles and gravels instead of using the vulcanic sand, when we try to move out the Terrarium we encountered a problem. When moving the terrarium all the stuff in it got mixed up due to uneven plain fields that occurred when moving it. Afterwards we try to even out the plain fields but the substance inside the terrarium still got mixed up, so on Monday we would recreate the terrarium again.

After the incident that occurred on Friday we gathered all the things we needed again and went on to restore it again. Once everything is ready we went on and preceded to put everything back in place again, now we reach further layers than what we have reached before. We just proceeded to cleaned the active carbons and then went on to clean the vulcanic sand which we finally managed to extract and place inside the terrarium.
6th February 2018
We then continued to clean the vulcanic sand so it wouldn’t be dirty once the water is in the terrarium. We cleaned and put the vulcanic sands in the terrarium for one hour, once that is finished we then carefully insert the water to the terrarium, at first when we put the water in it was very dirty and we then insert the water plants inside the terrarium so nothing else would go wrong, we then leave our terrarium until the coming Friday.

The day is Wednesday there were no period or block for biology but I wanted to check on the terrarium and see if the water would be cleaner or even dirtier, since I missed the schedule to look at them in the morning I waited till it’s three o’clock. Once it was three I looked inside the lab at at the bottom of the floor I saw my group’s terrarium, and was it a magnificent sight the water was cleaner then yesterday, I wasn’t expecting such a rapid change happening, but it happened. I wasn’t able to attend the class on Friday so I waited until Monday so I’ll be able to see the terrarium again.
12th February:
We went on and proceed to gather the fishes and animals, Adit bring his aquarium that was filled with shrimps and fishes, the aquatic animals would need to be transferred in a very peculiar way, because of that we waited for quite a while until we are able to put the fishes in their new home. We had some troubles when inputing the aquatic animals, like when we are inputing the Shrimps they were very attached to the plants and because of that we took the plants along with the shrimps inside, we had to travel from one distance to another so we are able to put the aquatic animals inside the terrarium. In the beginning some of the shrimps were shredded because of a particular person accidently spilled the filter to the aquarium and some of the shrimps go stuck inside the filter and got shredded, fortunately not all the shrimps was shredded in the process. Once we put everything in the tank we cleaned everything and just leave the place be.

Today went downstairs and checked our Terrarium, when we went down we checked that everything is still live and well, we are happy to know about that, once finished we just stayed until it was time to leave the room, all the fish were swimming and the snails sticking, today was a well day spent to know that none of our aquatic animals dying.
16th February 2018
We rechecked the terrarium again and to find that all the living things are still there and that the water is getting cleaner and we are able to see the fish or specificly the pleco fish to eat the plants and the dirt within the terrarium. The snails were sticking in the glass as well.
19th February 2018
Today one of the group member sought to say they saw the shrimps having babies, but we can’t say that for sure since they were all hiding within the plants and they all were healthy and active as well, none of them has died and that they are all still alive and well.
21st February 2018
Today is the last day for us cheking the fish and plants and basically the whole terrarium and that all of us were happy to see that they are all alive and well. We are able to see a symbiotic relationship being created by one each of the other. The pleco, snails, and the shrimp has a relationship where they would clean out each other’s dirt which end up benefiting every single organism within the terrarium.
