i need to do research on an aquatic ecosystem for my Biology class.
It's gotta have life, and most cool rivers and lakes have already been picked.
Therefore, I don't want any answers like, "The Nile," or "Lake Tahoe."
I need something that's beautiful and something I can actually find plenty of information on. Something that's not so widely known, and of course once again, gotta have life.
Thanks.

Salmon River in Idaho - headwaters at Red Fish Lake and Sawtooth National Recreation Area. Redfish Lake is the furthest inland, highest elevation place in the continental US that salmon can swim to. Redfish Lake has endangered Sockeye salmon - only three fish this year.

Lake Eyre in Australia is more often than not a dry and barren salt flat, however when monsoonal rains fill the lake the diversity of life is amazing! Truly a miracle of nature! Worth a look if you want something extreme!

....Russia's Lake Baikal, located north of the Mongolian border, is the world's deepest with a maximum depth of just over one mile (5371 feet / 1637 meters). Lake Baikal is so deep that it holds about one-fifth of the world's non-frozen fresh water supply.
