I am not going to be remodeling Zoey's tank anytime soon.
I've had fish die before, and it's always sad. What happened to Zoey is the sadest, weirdest thing that's ever happened to my fish. She disapeared.
I've heard betta fish are jumpers, but I've never had a betta fish that jumped before. There are two places where she could have jumped out of the tank, one is almost impossible, but it's also more likely. One is in the back of the tank, and she'd have a hard time getting around the stuff on that shelf. The other one is the little hole that is used for feeding, it's really small. She was small enough that she could've fit through it, if you read my other blog "The Halfmoon Vampire", you'll know that I also have a dog, and a cat, either of which could've grab Z if she got to my floor.
The reason it's the sadest things that has ever happened to me fishwise is that I don't know what happened to her, there are a lot of possibilities.
Now this is "Betta Shark's fish zone". I will be using this blog as a journal of my fish that you can read! I will be trying to post once a week on this blog for the rest of 2012, and maybe I'll get into the habit of posting once a week and continue into 2013! :) I hope you like my fish!

Zoey's Tank Remodeling: Part 1
I have decided to completely remodel my fish tanks! First I'm going to start with Zoey's (I'd like to upgrade Jack's). Part one is decision making.
First I had to decide the kind of substrate I want in the bottom of my tank. (Gravel, or sand)
I was told I can use a certain kind of blasting media that won't harm the fish, so that is what I will be using. It's called "Black Diamond", it's black sand.
Second I had to decide between the plastic plants I currently have, getting new silk plants, or trying to grow live plants. I decided on live plants.
Third I had to decide what kinds of plants, and I had to think about what kind of conditions each of these plants need. Here are the plants I've decided on for my 3.5 Gallon tank.
Java Fern - These plants need to have their roots exposed in the water, it's best to have them on a rock or piece of wood. They will attach their roots to the wood, or rock. They are a low-medium light plant. They don't need any kind of fertilizer or anything like that, but they do grow better with it. All of these things together make it a good beginner's plant, which is good because I've never had live aquarium plants. My favorite aquarium plant.
Green Cabomba - These plants can have their roots planted in the substrate (sand in this case). Green Cabomba grows very tall, very fast, so you will need to cut it back often. This plant requires medium-high light. They also require no fertilizer, but grow better with it. This plant is another beginner's plant, I have a black plastic version of it, and I'm very excited to get the real thing!
Java Moss - A low light plant. This moss also needs to be attached to a log, or a rock. I am going to get a rock (that looks like wood), attach one Java fern on each side, and Java moss in the middle. Java moss actually needs to be attached to the rock, or wood until the roots take hold. Like the others they require no fertilizer. Also like the others it is a beginner plant
Anubias Petite Nana - I keep changing the type of Anubias I want, but this one is small so I think it's my best bet! Another low light plant. With all the same requirement as the other three. Also a beginners plant.
So now you know my plan, I just have to put it in action! Keep watching for Zoey's Tank Remodeling: Part 2 (buying the supplies). I will be posting in between parts, so if part two isn't my next post don't worry! It's coming! :)

Bettas
Well I guess changing my blog to The Shark Zone didn't help me post more often like I thought it would... I might end up changing it again!
For now I think I'm going to change it to a journal about my fish! :) So an update on my bettas:
If you read my blog "The Halfmoon Vampire" then you'll know that I have had 5 different bettas by now. In the order I got them:
King Jonathan the 1st
Queen Thayet Bubbles the 1st (I always wanted to breed King, and Thayet, so I decided to add "The 1st" onto their names so if I get more fish that look like them I can name them after those two!)
Aphrodite Aqua Whitlock
Zoey Astell Whitebird (I change the spelling of "Astell" almost every time I spell it because I can never remember how I spelled it the first time!)
Jack Mitchell Spazz Nightwing.
The first three on the list are all dead :( Zoey is a white Veiltail, and Jack is a pink, blue, red, and orangish Crowntail! Right now they both have plastic plants in their tanks, but I want to buy some live plants for both of them, and change the gravel to sand. Java Fern is apparently really easy, and it's one of my favorite plants, even though I've never grown any kind of aquarium plant. :p
My goal for this year is to post on this blog at least once a week. Even if it's just "hey... I haven't given up on my goal yet, and my fish are still alive... so bye..." Let's see if this works out.

Presentation
My presentation on sharks went very well. Not many of the people I had been able to invite came, so it was a small audience, but I didn't really mind. Everybody said that they enjoyed it, and learned a lot. I just uploaded a video I made for the presetnation to YouTube. Here is the link!
During the presentation I forgot to talk about my goals for the year, it was long enough anyways. (Around an hour or so I think)
To Visit an Aquarium where there are sharks so I can study real sharks.
To go on a whale watch. There's always the chance I'll see a shark, and I do like whales, too.
To learn to swim better, I'd like to take diving lessons, but I'm not a strong swimmer.
To see a shark in it's natural habitat. (Slightly ambitious)
Those are my Shark related goals.

2001: The Summer of the Sharks
The summer of 2001 has been named "The Summer of the Sharks", but nobody knows why! There were no more attacks than in other years, some even say there were less! But the news was crawling with sharks, and shark attacks in 2001. I am only mentioning the most well known attacks.
The first attack of the summer was on July 6th.
Jesse Arbogast was 8-years-old when swimming with his Uncle near Pensacola, Florida. Jesse's arm was grabbed by a 200 pound, 7' Bull shark. His arm was severed. Jesse's Uncle grabbed the shark, and dragged in onto the beach. Help was called.
A park ranger came. He ended up shooting, and killing the shark. After the shark was dead, he reached in, and pulled out Jesse's arm. Jesse was brought to the hospital, where his arm was reattached.
Today Jesse is happily living with his parents, though he suffers from brain damage, and inability to control his limbs because of the attack.
The second Shark attack was in the Bahamas, shortly after Jesse's misfortune.
Krishna Thompson and his wife AveMaria were at the Bahamas for their anniversary. Krishna decides to go to the beach as soon as possible, but his wife remembers all the news about sharks, and decides to just go to the hotel pool instead. Krishna goes into the water, knowing how unlikely it is that he'll get attacked. A few minutes later he was in the jaws of a bull shark.
The bull shark nearly severed his leg, and Krishna knew the only way he was going to have a chance of surviving was to get to the beach. Swimming with only his arms, Krishna reached the beach. A few people ran up to him, and asked if he was a guest at the hotel. On Shark Week he says he wrote his room number in the sand.
When the hotel staff got the news they rushed to find AveMaria. On Shark Week she says she thought it was going to be something in continuation of their nice anniversary weekend. When she got to the beach she saw him lying in the sand, almost dead. He survived his ordeal with the bull shark also, but he does not suffer from any brain damage, though has had to go through lots of surgery to save his leg.
Later on September 1st a boy died after being attacked on Virginia Beach..
David Peltier, 10-years-old, was attack while surfing with his Dad, and two brothers. The Shark grabbed David by his leg, severing the femoral artery. David's father punched the shark several times before the shark let go, and swam away. David's father got him to the beach and called for help. David was brought to a children's hospital, where he later died.
Just two days after David was attacked, and killed, a man, and his fiance were attacked on September 3rd.
Natalia Slobodskaya, and Sergei Zaloukaev, were swimming together in Virginia, close to where David was attacked. Natalia felt something bump her, and at first thought it was some of her friends, trying to scare her. It bit her a few times, and Sergei told her that it was a shark, and told her to swim fast.
They started to swim back to shore together, the whole time the shark was attacking. Natalia lost a foot, but Sergei had it much, much worse. A few days after the attack Natalia was told by her mother that Sergei had not survived the ordeal.
Natalia, and Sergei were going to be leaving the USA within days to go back to Moscow, where they lived.
A few days after Natalia learned that Sergei had died the Summer of the Sharks was ended with a bang, with the 9/11 terrorist attack.

Project Date
The project date is set for September 9th. (Which will be my official 2nd day of school!) It's this Friday!
For the next few days I'm going to be writing, typing, drawing, and reserching up a storm!! Luckily, I have every page, drawing, etc., planned out! I have a list of papers that I'm working on, ones that are done, and ones I haven't even started! Key: ^ = started, ~ = finished, and x = not started!
Reef Sharks - ^ (The box is going to be most of the info on reef sharks)
Krill Eaters - x
Man Eaters - ^
Small Sharks - x
Shark Teeth and Jaws - x
2001: Summer of the Sharks - ^
Shark Produsts - ~
Odd Places for Sharks - x
And I also used my last post as a page:
Sharks of New England - ~
As you can see I have a lot of things to do. Those are just pages! But each page only takes about a half hour, to an hour to write and research, so if I can I'm going to finish all of them tomorrow.
Then Thursday (if I get all my pages done tomorrow, but don't have any time to start pictures then) I'll do my pictures.
Great Whites
Goblin Sharks
Basking Sharks
Thresher Sharks
Hammerheads
Shark senses
Each of those sharks have something different in apparence from each other. I will also label the fins in each picture.
And those will take probably 10-15 minutes each picture. But I have dance of Thursday, so if I don't do those earlier, then I won't be able to do my models, too.
My clay models are already done. But I also have my shoe box reef, and my "booklet". My booklet is two pieces of cardboard taped together, and I'm putting small drawings on the "pages".
Friday I'll make sure everything is ready, and do any finishing touches. It'll be hard, but that's what I get for forgetting about it for so long.

New England sharks
I'm going to do a series of posts about sharks in different places in the USA. My first state is one that I was always told was a place too cold for sharks. New England.
Several species of sharks that live in New England are:
Basking Sharks
Dogfish
Great Whites
Threshers
Blue Sharks
Makos
Porbeagle
Hammerhead (only one kind)
Tigers
Dusky Sharks
Basking sharks are the second largest type of sharks, but are harmless to humans! They are krill-eaters. They are more often spotted in the summertime in New England.
Dogfish are a small variety of sharks, that often get stuck in lobster traps. Dogfish may bite humans, but it will not be a serious injury.
Everybody knows that Great Whites have been known to attack humans. But do they attack in New England? Well in 1916 there was a well-known series of shark attacks, where the Great White swam up a river in New York, and attacked people swimming in the river. The last Great White I have heard of in New England was caught off the coast of Boston, it was a young male. Here is some good information about Great Whites, and attacks. Please notice that the most recent fatal attack was 1938.
I do not know very much about Thresher Sharks. I know that they very rarely attack humans. In fact I have never heard of a Thresher attack. They have very long tails, which is where they get their names, if I'm not mistaken.
Blue Sharks. A larger species of shark, yet still not as big as Great Whites, Bulls, Hammerheads, or Tigers. These sharks will swim into waist-deep water, and will - very, very, very, rarely - attack humans.
Makos, shortfins are common in New England, but are consider good eating. Male makos rarely reach over 500 lbs., but most females reach 1,000 lbs., or higher! Makos have been known to eat Blue sharks!
Porbeagles look a lot like shortfin Makos, and the two species are often confused. They live in New England all year long. Females can get around 200 lbs., heavier than the males.
Smooth Hammerheads live in New England. Some species of Hammerhead live in schools, including Smooth Hammerheads. Out of all Hammerhead species, Smooth Hammerheads are the most cold hardy, and can is found worldwide. They tend to like to stay in shallow water, in large groups.
Tiger sharks are identified by the stripes on their backs, and sides. Tigers are also known as the "Garbage cans of the Sea" because they will eat almost anything. Unfortunately, that includes humans. However, these sharks are popular in demand for their fins, skin, and livers. And with their slow reproduction rate they are listed as endangered species.
Dusky sharks have often been mistaken for Bull Sharks in New England. Bull Sharks do not live in New England, but Dusky Shark have a similar look. These Sharks also have a slow reproduction rate, and are not able to breed until they are about 18-23 years old! The females only have a litter once every 3, or more, years. They are also very valuable, and over fished for fins, skin, meat, and livers.
So these are Sharks of New England!
This is going to be on of the info sheets for my project.

So these are Sharks of New England!

Project part 3 - Info sheets!
I have a presentation board that was being used for my Snakehead project, that a few of you may know about. (I never finished that project...)
I am going to have multipul sheets of paper about different species of sharks:
1. Reef Sharks: Blacktipped, Whitetipped, and more! (The shoe box is a shoebox reef, in case you forgot)
2. Harmless Sharks: Harmless to humans that is... They still have to eat.
3. "Man-Eaters": Do they really eat men? And do they eat women and children, too?
4. Small Sharks: And you thought sharks were big man-eaters!
5. Shark Teeth, and Jaws: The only bones they have.
6. 2001: Summer of the Sharks... For some unknown reason.
7. Shark products: I know. I didn't want to know about these either.
8. Odd places to find sharks: Washington state, Greenland, Canada, sharks are everywhere!
I'm also going to have handouts with a little bit of information from each sheet on them. But that's a whole other post :)
