Water Rats was an Australian police action/drama show, set on and around Goat Island, in the Sydney Harbour. The show went through the highs and lows of the men and women who worked at the Sydney Water Police. It originally starred Colin Friels and Catherine McClements, who made the show a big hit. By the end of the show in 2001 Steve Bisley, Aaron Pedersen and Dee Smart were the shows main stars.
Bosmina longirostris. Water fleas belong to the Crustacea, a large group of 'jointed limbed' animals, most of which live in water. Water fleas are placed in the order Cladocera <see footnote> and are probably called 'fleas' because they move through the water by a sort of hopping. Water fleas are very common in fresh water, in Britain you can find about 80 different species, in The Netherlands about a 100 species.
