Week Two

I visited my micrcosm on Wednesday. This week, to my surprise, the aquarium was overflowing with life. The life form I spent the most time observing, was a worm like creature. I spotted two of these swimming around in the aquarium and followed them both for quite some time. The organism was clear, long, and covered in cilia. I found these guys to love a diet of moss. While I was watching one of them, he consumed an amazing amount of moss for such a little guy. I was able to actually see the moss moving through his "digestive track." Unfortunately, I was only able to stay for an hour and a half, and did not have time to get any photos of these creatures. Hopefully next time I'll be able to share some images of them with you!
