On holiday and snatched some lake water. How can I keep this alive?


There's a TON of slugs in this. At least 3 tiny little things too which look like shrimp but my parents say that since it's a lake with fish in that it isn't shrimp. I have a feeling the plant inside is dying. I grabbed this last night. The dirt settled overnight. I don't know how to keep the plant alive though. I can't tell where the roots begin.

    If that’s an aquatic plant in there it should work..just keep it out of direct sunlight.

    And you might wanna check over at r/Ecosphere

    It could be shrimp, can’t see in the pictures, but if they look similar to shrimp they’re more likely scuds(gammarus shrimp). It needs light, but not direct sunlight, either off to the side of a window or with a curtain/blinds shading the sun.

    It will be difficult in that small of a container to keep things alive. Next time do the same, but use a larger container and try to get more plants, some that look healthy and green.
