The Last Observation

The water is still as murky as in our last observation. It's faint dark gold/brown color that is mostly caused by the soil deposits from the top bottle. The ends of the strings that connects both terrariums is lined with black, which I think is mold cause by the strings being submerged too long.

In the top portion of the terrarium our dying leaves are holding on by a thread. Instead of being thick and green as in previous observers they are extremely thin and limp, with brown coating the edges and some of the inside. On the dirt we see the shriveled remains of the shriveled seed shells. At the edges I can see some small, black things that may be mold.

Our fish's corpse is still tangled in the plants, and the fact that it's body is intact despite being dead for a while tells me that the snails are also dead; otherwise the dead fish would have served as food.

Black mold on strings, possibly. 


This might be mold at the edge of the dirt terrarium. 


The leaves have brown on its edge or within its body.
