New growth

Thursday 10.22.09:

My observations from Thursday were very interesting. Last week, the only organism I saw was the copepod, now I am able to clearly see the copepod in two or three different stages. The once small copepods are now visible to the unaided eye. I was also able to observe what I expect to be seed shrimp, it looked like a transparent clam. There was also a worm like organism that was very large, and moved continually. The movement was very similar to that of a serpent. It was transparent with the exception of three regions that varied from dark green up to a light green, I expect those regions to be the organ system of the organism. This worm like organism prefers to the cover of the sediment and seems to continually consuming the algae that is growing in the sediment. I will have to spend more time with the guide for identifying micro-organisms. I did take note that there was new growth in the sediment, looks like green algae like substance. After concluding my observations, I fed my MicroAquarium one pellet of the following food:
