At 9:00 am we received a call from the manager of the hatchery at SUNY Morrisville. He had Tilapia but none of them were at a stage where they were big enough to breed. He did indicate that Tilapia might be a hard fish to work with for this experiment because they are mouth breeders. Even with this new information, we decided to stick with our decision. It was our best option. We still had a leed at the USDA as well as the company contact in Santa Fe that Cornell University had provided. Our final list of materials was freshwater Tilapia eggs, and Town of Ballston Municipal Water with dechlorinator. We even had to provide a listing of the ingredients on the dechlorinator bottle. We submitted the information at 9:45 am. Just shy of the 10:00 am deadline.
