Week 4

There was tons of action going on in my aquarium this week. The Chaetogaster sp that we saw last week was still there but there wasn't just one of then. The worms were all over the place along the bottom of the aquarium and there was one on the remains of the food pellet as well. I noticed this week that the worms were dividing which is why there are multiple of them this week. There were also many Peranema sp swimming around everywhere. There seemed to be more around the food pellet then anywhere else, and they also used flagella to move. Lastly, there were hundreds of Bodo sp swimming around in the aquarium. These small organisms tended to be around the food pellet and had flagella on them. Overall I can see that there are continuing to be more large organisms and less small ones.
