• Our poor fish tank was not doing well.  It was full of algae, and we could barely see the fish.

  • So, we called on the person who originally set up the tank, Stephen Morris.  Stephen was a student at ALA a long time ago, and he was happy to come and help revive the fish tank.

    He came and cleaned the tank and put in plants.

    Yes, the tank was cloudy right after he fixed it. But it soon cleared up.

  • Now it is a little later, and the tank has more plants and fish!
