The TFF supported trout tanks are doing well, with the rainbow fry now sporting par marks and feeding ravenously! We have had an odd year this year, with some tanks doing very well and others crashing, leaking or fish mysteriously dying. However overall we still have a healthy group of several hundred fish and we … Continue reading Trout in the Classroom Update

Trout in the Classroom Update

April 23, 2021April 29, 2021mattblyth Leave a comment

Apologies for the lack of updates lately - the club trout tanks are still moving along. We managed to survive snow-mageddon without any loses, as we had the very good luck to have power throughout the whole week at both schools! However spring break looks like it managed to cut our numbers down a bit … Continue reading Trout in the Classroom Update

Folks Our TFF trout in the classroom tanks continue to do well, and all the fish survived spring break with no issues. However COVID-19 has meant that we are looking at multiple weeks of school closures now, and many of the teachers have limited to no access to their classrooms during this time.
