make-up third observation

Well, I missed a week in observing; but my kind lab instructor is giving us all a break. What I have noticed in my micro-aquarium is that many of the larger creatures observed the last 2 times are all gone. I guess the either died or are hiding. This time I can see Halteria, they are organisms that have wavy, spindles coming off of a circular body. I actually noticed nematodes and spyrogyra this time. There is plenty of green algae as well. All of the dirt and scum has settled to the bottom. The plants seem to be doing well. There are still lots of tiny organisms that swim way to fast to catch and are way too small. No time for those critters.
