Blog post 4

This weeks observation was not as active as last weeks. I think this is because the food pellet that was placed in the tank last week cause a lot of activity to occur. I saw the least amount of activity this time while observing. Although the activity was slow, I did observe a lot of Spirogyra sp. (Prescott 1978). I have been seeing this specimen since the start of the miroaquarium and it has became a vital part of the microaquarium. I also saw three Stentor sp. which I saw last week. I found a large Nematode inside of the Amblestegium varium ( Patterson 28). Another microorganism that I saw and have seen since the start of the tank was Euchlanis sp. (Prescott 1978).
