Algae finds

Today we looked through clumps of algae to find tiny bacteria and organisms. Me and my partner found a couple different things! We found many Scuds, small and large, many rotifers of many shapes and sizes, and some weird worm looking organism that was super tiny. And also we found a bunch of snails to toss into our tank. Here's a few pictures of the Scuds:

So we added 2 large Scuds, 2 rotifers, 4 snails, and a worm. We didn't notice a difference with our sharks when we added these organisms. But we watched the snails come out and slug around. We also didn't notice our sharks having an interest in anything do nothing got eaten haha. So successful all around!
