Here is a close up of our decomposition zone, in it we place bananas, banana peels, cut up pieces of melon skin, pieces of melon and old cut grass. to start off the decomposition process we placed already rotting fuit in the eco-column which already had flies and fruit flies and mould. 

This is another image of our decomposition zone, you can see all of the rotting elements which we have placed in our eco column. we have also got a gecko in the decomp. zone, but sadly it is not vissible in this image. it lives off of the insects and flies in that zone. sadly the environment is not big enough for it to sustain the geckoes life sufficiently so it will not live its full lifespan. There are also some very nice examples of mould growing in this zone.
