Week Two Observations

The second week of observations has shown a great increase in the activity.  With the addition of "Atison's Betta Food" made by Ocean Nutrition, Aqua Pet Americas, 3528 West 500 South, Salt Lake City, UT 84104. Ingredients: Fish meal, wheat flower, soy meal, krill meal, minerals, vitamins and preservatives. Analysis: Crude Protein 36%; Crude fat 4.5%; Crude Fiber 3.5%; Moisture 8% and Ash 15%, done on Friday the 26th of October, 2012 seems to have caused the many different creatures to be more active and a greater number of Rotifera were seen.  The primary one that was seen and identified with the help of Kenneth McFarland was the Euchlanis Rotifera.  This creature had a round body, single tail, and a small head.  Perhaps fifteen of these were readily observed.
