Streamteam water testing Sept 2024

Streamteam water testing is run every month by the amazing folk at Friends of Merri Creek. Physical chemistry tests tell us about the health of the waters (phosphates, turbidity, ammonia) and the critters who live in them. You could meet spider crabs, dragonflies and net spinning caddis in the waters we test, and see where rakali have been feasting on fresh water mussels.

Each month is different as the seasons change and human activities upstream impact the creek as it flows through our local area too.

Wondering what to expect? Check out our report from our first visit.

If you or guests have any accessibility needs we should be aware of, please let us know as soon as possible so we can get in touch.
