On Tuesday Oct. 13 we started our MicroAquarium™. I ended up using the water from #10 bowl.
It happens to come from a water pool bellow a spring at Lynnhurst Cemetery. I also added plant A and plant B. Plant A was Amblystegium varium (Hedw.) Lindb. Moss. Collection from: Natural spring. at Carters Mill Park, Carter Mill Road, Knox Co. TN. Plant B was Utricularia vulgaris L. Flowering. For this first observation I saw quite a few organisms. Some large multicellular ones swimming very fast. There were also some long snakelike creatures. As of now I haven't identified any of them. Class ran a bit late and I couldn't find out what they were from the teacher.
