We are working hard to keep our Redbelly Dace safe. They are a state threatened fish species and we are working with students to breed them and reintroduce them into the wild. They were delivered to the schools right before Covid-19 hit. One week later we had to move them to our directors house so they could be cared for. We are thrilled they are ok and cannot wait until we can get students back to taking care of them. Live NERD cam coming soon!

Join our science educator to learn about the challenges of achieving neutral buoyancy! Scientists, whether they're SCUBA diving or designing underwater Remote Operated Vehicles (ROVs), need to ensure they're neither sinking to the ocean floor, nor floating on the surface. Find a positively buoyant object — something that floats — and follow along with Ayla as she experiments with how to make it neutrally bouyant!
