What is this all about

Dear whoever reads this,

Eight weeks ago I went to a pond and filled a bucket with sand from the shore. Back home, I put the sand in an aquarium I have in the balcony and added about 60 liters of tap water.

That was eight weeks ago.

Today, the aquarium is still in the balcony and many things happened. It rained, it was cold, it was sunny, windy and in between plants and creatures started to grow inside the aquarium.

Since the aquarium began to blossom, I've been wondering what is actually growing in there but I am not a biologist. My knowledge of plants, insects and ponds is very limited.

I expect that by using this blog to report about the aquarium some people will show up and shed some light on this mysterious balcony pond. I will post pictures, descriptions, videos and some measurements I can do to the water using some special Kit I got a couple of weeks ago.

Well, we'll see how this blog develops.

Salut,
Carlos.
