Week 1

I spent a little over an hour looking at my little aquarium. There were several interesting organisms swimming around. I spotted a Daphnia once, but couldn't find it again. There were several different kinds of rotifers that were hiding in the aquatic plants. There was a tacysoma swimming in the open water, and so were several navicular diatoms. There was a plasmodial amoeba. I watched it for a very long time. I had never seen anything move so strangley before. It was rather small, from what Dr. McFarland said. Hopefully it will grow, and reproduce.
