There is a lot going on under the surface of the water, much of which we cannot see with the naked eye. It is breathtaking, for example, how mosquito larvae manage to stick to the surface of rocks in a strong current. Or how the caddis fly larva spins itself a doll's house out of silk. The animals in the water have developed special techniques so that they can survive in their environment. We observe together how they get food under water and protect themselves against ice in winter and from drying out in summer. The aquatic inhabitants are often dependent on each other. We want to take a closer look at these relationships and dependencies. This will help us understand how the animals survive under water - and which changes to their habitat can harm them.
