The salt water sample from Hannah's aquarium
still yields interesting things. The most
prominent is a unique ciliate called (I think)
climacostum. There are several of them in this
view. They are flatter than a pancake,
folding themselves as they glide over surfaces..
The salt water is a place of algae. The algae
form pill shaped groupings and the cyno-bacteria
(a form of algae) form long strings and glide slowly
around. Then there are the very small flagellates,
barely visible even under high magnification,
darting about their business.
