Need help(High school science fair project)

pelleeklund that was actually the first plan but however she explained it the teacher didn't understand what the parameters levels were or what we were testing or something. I had her gather information about the cycling process and we were going to display it with pics

Could do an experiment with Halimeda(a marine algae), set up a few tanks with different light cycles(12 vs 24hrs) and/or temperature. Record the effect of light cycles and/or temp on growth. Here's some info on setting up a Halimeda tank:

Hello; I was going to suggest a project on the cycling process but another clever member beat me to it.

How about somethin on the physical aparatus that operates a tank setup? How a heater thermostat works? (bimetal springs, watt per gallon, convection demo with heat source)

diurnal light cycles? Adaptations of plants for aquatic living( submergent, emergent)? UV light?

Life cycle of parasites common to aquaria? (ick)

Good luck

thanks for the feed back! i think we're going to try the cycling process and try to explain it to the teacher better
