Week 4: MicroAquarium observations


  • Nearly all of the cyanobacteria has disappeared, probably because it was used as a food source for numerous organisms in the tank.
  • I observed four analids scraping the few remains of the cyanobacteria, collected at the mid-right of the tank against the wall.
  • This has been the fewest number of organisms that I have observed so far.
  • I found a cyclops carcass at the bottom of the tank in the mud.
  • There are also considerably less bacteria in the tank (the "amoeba farm" which was viewed in last week's observation).
