Death in the EcoColumn

I was very upset upon viewing our EcoColumn today! To my demise Lizzy, our lizard, was dead. At first, I though it was due to the lack of food--Fruit Flies, but after thinking about it could it of been due to the temperature of the room where we stored the EcoColumns???? All other living creatures seem to be thriving, but not the lizard! I did observe a fruit fly in our decomposition chamber. ONE! I guess one is better than none! We did however add more fruit fly larvae to the decomp chamber in hopes of more to hatch. Our water is still dark and our salvinia is growing like weeds! Even though I was very disappointed with finding the death of our lizard, I still see lots of progress in other areas of our EcoColumn.
