I did mine with my students . We had three set ups. One with salt and without salt placed under sun. And another two placed indoor. We observed green layer of bacteria and algae at the surface of the one without salt placed outdoor...but nothing of such in the one placed indoor. However,in the salt one outdoor,we saw a layer of reddish brown growth around the egg York region. What could the name of the salt loving bacteria? We need help.
Hi Hannah! Thanks for trying this out with your students. Our team is researching your question and will reply back with our findings asap. Thanks again!
I have a question! If i wanted to make a large-scale one using acrylic panels (a miniature version of the one at the exploratorium in SF) What does upkeep look like? Would I need to be putting newspaper shreds and hardboiled eggs routinely?
