Hi from Alaska

Post by Tiapuffer »

Hello - I am an elementary teacher. Someone gave me a Green Spotted Puffer for my classroom. I thought this might be a good place to learn and to ask questions that come up. My students are enjoying "Green Top." Green Top is excited to see the students each day as he spends the evening alone... with a few visits from the custodians.

Bonjour et bienvenue.

I wish we'd had such an intereasting fish when I was at school. We had a goldfish and I never wanted to bring it home on week-ends but ended up with it twice in 4 months...

Hello.

In my aquarium society, I'm part of a philanthropy group. We set up aquariums in library and schools to educate/promote the fish hobby. Most of the resources are donated from the club members to the public entity. Although most of the stuff is old, its still useable. Try to see if you can find resources from your local aquarium society.
Kind regards,
Terrance
