My favorite science experiment was going out on a boat to collect little bugs that live in the water called zooplankton. We wanted to see if the bugs would eat harmful algae that was killing fish and act as a biological control. The bugs did eat the algae and experiments are still being done to see if they can be used for this purpose.
