This week's observation I was able to obtain 4 new organisms in my micro aquarium.
Those four organisms included:
A Dero sp. "Pennak 2001, p. 301 fig 1"
A Dero sp. is a worm- bilaterally symmetrical invertebrates. When observing this organism I noticed how it was eating different other organisms in the micro aquarium. It attacked a Nematoda sp., but then it didn't eat it.
The next organism that was found was a Nematoda sp. "Patterson 1996, p. 229 fig 1"
A Nematoda sp. are nematodes or roundworms that constitute the phylum Nematoda. They are a diverse animal phylum inhabiting a very broad range of environments.
