We took the gravel and poured it into our container. The gravel is a mixture of cinder and black sand. When we poured it in the dust when into the air. So we had to wash the gravel at least 3 to 5 times because we didn't want the dust in our gravel. When the water was dirty we had to pour out the water and get fresh water to stir the gravel in. the water was really cold when we mixed the water and the gravel. Then we took our container and dumped the gravel into the the container. Some gravel stuck to the side but later we used water to wash the gravel to the side and to the bottom. So since there is water in the vase we had to pour out the water again until all the water was gone. Last of all when we were finished we put our containers in the back so it could dry also since the gravel was wet we also had to dry that too. When we put everything in the back to dry we were done. Now the first part of making the shrimp habitat is finished.
