Week Four Observation

This week, several mature cyclopses were found in various areas in the tank. The midge has grown quite a bit, and its color is now more of a golden brown. It was moving more slowly this week near the plants. A few diatoms and cyanobacteria colonies were observed. The newest discovery this week was the Ammelid- Aeolosoma sp. (Pennack). It was large, light brown, and appeared to be slimy. It was weaving around the plants. This sums up the observations for this week. Hopefully, next week will be a little more exciting.
