SuncrestReef Posted November 29, 2018 Share Posted November 29, 2018 I'm really enjoying exploring the tiny inhabitants of my aquarium with my new microscope. Here's a video showing some sort of pod under 80x, 200x, and 800x magnification. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeremevans Posted November 29, 2018 Share Posted November 29, 2018 This reminds me of the last time I made it to the meeting at the Hatfield Science center and Sid showed us some parasite identification under the microscope. I hope your fish don't have parasites, but if they do it would be cool to see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skebor Posted November 29, 2018 Share Posted November 29, 2018 That is so aweaome! At like the 2:09 mark it looks like something even smaller is crawling around the top right of the white space. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuncrestReef Posted November 29, 2018 Author Share Posted November 29, 2018 (edited) I know! It's mind boggling when looking a something that's only 1mm long at 800x, and suddenly you see things that are too small to make out moving around it.

SuncrestReef Posted November 29, 2018 Author Share Posted November 29, 2018 Someone on Reef2Reef just ID'd it as a munnid isopod, a harmless algae eater. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
