Science Experiment Help

GREAT! :D passing on the project... I have 2 go now. Bye! ;) good luck!
 
umm just so you know introducing ice to a beaker of water with a goldfish in it has a chance of killing the goldfish.

Im not saying it definatly will but the sudden change is not a good thing.

Not true, most ferts don't have nitrates or phosphates in it. The main source of food for algae.

Nope, ammonia and urea is a better source of food for algea. Most land ferts have the n from urea. And check the label, most ferts for land plants have plenty of phosphates. N-P-K. The middle number is the Phosphate.
 
people... relax. i've done this experiment before... remember? they won't die. My experiment was a 100% success! I have experience on my side. I suggest you use a comet (feeder) fish for the experiment... just in case
 
just becuase you did it and your fish didn't died doesn't mean that that will always be the case.

I would stick with the algae, no need to put fish through experiments that aren't needed. Plus i dont' think your daughter would be too thrilled with possibly killing a fish(i dont' think you get good marks if your experiments dies)
 
well, that's true... that's why I suggested she buy a cheap feeder fish: a comet. If it dies, she won't get bad marks, it'll just prove that her hypothesis failed... She won't get bad marks for that.
