Aquarium comes to third and fourth class.

On the 21st of February 2008 a man called Gary from the Salthill Aquarium came to our school. He came to deliver an aquarium for our classroom. He brought with him a starfish, a butterfish, 2 cork wing wrasse, 3 hermit crabs, a mullet, 4 prawns and 2 flat fish. The mullet fish looks most like an ordinary fish.

We will have to look after the fish in our classroom until the Summer. We will feed the fish every day with squid and the starfish will eat muscles. When the starfish digests food you can see the food going into his stomach. The hermit crab hides from predators in his shell. The butterfish looks a lot like an eel.
