Trout in the Classroom

We will: raise trout from eggs to fry monitor tank water quality Study trout stream habitat learn about water resources and conservation

Brook Trout Only native trout to PA They need low temperature, a lot of oxygen, and excellent water quality

Indicator Species An organism whose presence reflects the environmental conditions They are sensitive to changes in their ecosystem May get sick, die or leave the area

Timeline Egg collection Eggs shipped or delivered to schools

Timeline We get approximately 300 eggs They will hatch in 2-3 weeks (called alevin or sac-fry)

Timeline The fish will begin to swim up and look for food after approx. 1 week (Fry) When they are 1-3 inches they will be called fingerlings

Adult Brook Trout Color and Markings Reddish orange on belly and under fins Yellow spots on sides Yellow-brown worm-like markings on it’s back Red spots with blue haloes across each side

Nitrogen Cycle Feed the fish Extra food and fish waste turn to ammonia (NH4) The ammonia changes into nitrites (NO2) The nitrites change into nitrates (NO3) Nitrates can poison the fish so you must clean the tank and change the water

Aquarium Jobs Check and record temperature Remove dead eggs (later, fish), record numbers Make water exchanges Water quality tests, record results Dust and clean equipment Clean filter parts Later, Siphon tank
