Week 5

After observing the microaquarium for several weeks the food supply was consumed. After the food was consumed every week the population of the organisms preveously observe deminished. While the plants that photosynthesis prosper because they still have an energy source.

Week 4

I observed the same organism with a denser population. The food particles were eaten to an extent but some still remained.

Week 3

Since the Beta three food particles were added more organisms have been discovered in my microaquarium. I have some Rotifers, some Paramecium bursaria, some Amoeba proteus and some Oscillatoria (bacteria) within my microaquarium. I noticed the Oscillatoria looked like moving leaves under the microscope and then identified it with the Handbook of Algae.
