Did You Know? (Some basic facts about our project)

We have very different kinds of fish in our two tanks.  Our trout come from North America and generally live in the Western United States and Canada.  They like COLD water and we have to use a chiller to keep the water around 54 degrees Fahrenheit.  They came as eggs, but some are starting to hatch.  Once they hatch, they keep their egg attached to their stomachs so that they can eat.  They are called alevins and the egg becomes known as their 'yolk sac.'
