2nd Observation

Prior to this observation a betta food pellet was added to my microaquarium. (Atison's Betta Food" made by Ocean Nutrition, Aqua Pet Americas, 3528 West 500 South, Salt Lake City, UT 84104. Ingredients: Fish meal, wheat flower, soy meal, krill meal, minerals, vitamins and preservatives. Analysis: Crude Protein 36%; Crude fat 4.5%; Crude Fiber 3.5%; Moisture 8% and Ash 15%.)
During this observation I discovered six organisms I did not see the first time. These include: Amoeba, Pleurotaenium, a nauplius Cyclops larvae, and two different types of Annelids: Stylaria(Trumpet-like proboscus) and Chaetogaster(rounder end).
