This month we have been re-evaluating our initial proposal and how it failed. Our mangroves have officially died, all of them. It started out with only two dying. The cause was thought to be because they were not strong enough to stabilize to the new environment of the bucket from its original habitat of the sump. Although we used the same water from the sump in our buckets, the sump water had more constant circulation of oxygen and the water in general. We knew this when we decided to use a bucket as our container, and we changed the water in the buckets weekly; replacing the water with more water from the original sump. Still, the mangroves did not thrive; actually they were in a constant state of decline from the beginning. We continued to try to save our remaining three mangroves but a week after the first two died, two more passed on to the alter plant life. After now changing the water bi-weekly, the causation behind the death of the mangroves remained unknown. Currently we are trying to figure out the reason behind the deaths of the mangroves. Maybe it was a chemical imbalance or bacteria. In the end our last mangrove perished. For our final presentation we will dissect our proposal and discuss what went wrong throughout our project and from there produce an alternate plan if we could re-do our project.
