Magic Fish
We bought this Science Kit from Popular. Its very interesting. My eldest boy, Shea is very keen to observe the stages of a fish. These are included in the kit... Magic Fish bag, Fairy seed (brine shrimp eggs originated from the sea) , Hatch Vessel, siphon, magnifying glass and a little spoon.
First of all, we bought a glass tank, filled it with water which was left to stand overnight.
The next day, we immersed the fish bag into the tank. 3 hours later, we saw 3 tiny baby fish swimming inside the tank. Not to mention Shea, my hubs and I were equally excited. I was trying very hard to spot the baby fish. My domestic helper seem to have a much easier time spotting them.
Slowly, I scooped up the baby fish one by one and transferred them into the small cup which came with the kit. This is to make feeding easier.
We also started to grow some live baby shrimp brine for the baby fish. It will take approx 24-72 hours to grow the live baby brine shrimp.
These pictures were taken 24 hours after we started...
Till now, we already have 10 baby fish.
