2. Hypothesis
HA- After shocking the Aptasia with a simulated heat wave, the Aptasia will begin the recover. We will see an increase in zoox as the weeks progess.
Ho- After shocking the Aptasia with a simulated heat wave, the Aptasia will not recover. We will see a decrease in the zoox as the weeks progess.

3. Observations Tank 1 Polyps are bleached
Small bumps have formed around the base of polyps where they have cemented themselves to the glass
Offspring are developing via asexual reproduction
