Observations

The first week I observed a seed shrimp. This week I noticed several organisms; however, this week I noticed the seed shrimp has grown a substantial amount. The scientific name of the seed shrimp is an ostracoda sp (Rainis KG, Russell BJ. 1996). The ostracoda is single celled. In the photo you can see the inner parts of the organism. When I first observed the organism it would only move in a circular motion is a small area of the microaquarium. Now it moves fast around the aquarium in a linear path. I observed three of the seed shrimps and one dead carcass of a once living seed shrimp.
