Week 5: MicroAquarium observations


  • In this week's observations I viewed three annelids and one cyclops organism.
  • The tank is of a blander color than in the first few week's observations. There is not much algae in the bottom mud of the tank still ever since last week. 
  • I observed one Turbellarian organism as before moving in the middle of the tank.
  • I observed another cyclops carcass in the mud at the bottom of the tank.
  • The cyanobacteria which was once thriving seems to be slightly growing throughout the middle of the tank but still significantly less than once was but more than last week.
  • The wiggly amoeba-farm is still absent since last week.
  • All in all, the food pellet may have killed the cyanobacteria somehow and then killed many organisms in the tank because they ran out of a food source.
