The last several weeks have definitely kept us busy! Things are starting to wind down, as our time here in Trinidad is coming to a close. After finishing the initial captures for my experiment, we set up Shannon's pot mesocosm experiments, which required setting up and fixing the pots as well as catching extra fish. We caught extra fish for her experiment and for my behavioral trials from the two sites (Rivulus Only) used for my experiment as well as two more (High Predation). We go out at night to catch killifish (Rivulus hartii) as they are more active at night. In between all of that we made various trips into town for groceries, gas, and other errands. Recap for my experiment began on December 5th, and we finished up the experiment on the 10th! Now we are finishing up Shannon's experiments. While we have been working tirelessly these past few weeks, we have managed some fun and relaxation - playing cards, reading, and even a beach day (on our one full day off so far).
