When looking at the MicroAquarium, the first thing that was notices was the explosion of life near the “Atison’s Betta Food” pellet. While the majority of the organisms where the same as first seen, there was a large increase in the numbers and how frequent they came into view.
What was interesting was the large increase of green algae that had sprung up near the pellet, the most noticeable being the filamentous algae. These long stands, which before had not been noticed, now seem to be the most dominate organism around the pellet. The length of the algae dwarfed any of the organisms that had been there before.
It is also important to mention that this is the first time that dead organisms have been noticed near the sediment at the bottom of the MicroAquarium. This area will be looked at carefully to see if any additional organisms end up there to feed of the remains.
