Ecosystem in a Bottle : Week 2 - Spoiler Alert! Death Count Begins

Week 2 was both a sad and joyous occasion. All three of our seeds sprouted with one big enough to touch the inside of the bottle. The other two are just emerging from the soil. The condensation in the inside our bottle indicates that we are getting circulation of water. I foresee good things in the future of these plants. I hope all of them get good sunlight in the upcoming weeks.

In the aquatic section both ghost shrimp have died; their tails are floating at the bottom of the tank. The snails are not moving right now and are at the bottom with the rocks. We are assuming that these snails are the culprits of the shrimps' deaths because I've been reading that ghost shrimp may eat fish babies, not the other way around.

The guppy himself is doing fabulously. He's swimming more than first day, where we sealed him to his fate, and seems a bit plumper. It seems he has a good amount of food to keep him alive.

1 kilogram 478 grams is the weight of our ecosystem. In my opinion (hypothesis) the ecosystem will grow heavier as time goes on. The plants are expected to grow more. The water plants may also grow. The guppy himself will grow some.
