On todays observation after the addition of the food tablet, several things were different. The biggest change that was evident was the presence of a green algae that was growing all around the sides of the aquarium. Also, the ground dirt seemed to be formed into several sacks by this green algae. Within these sacks I noticed the same worm-like organisms I have before, but in much larger numbers. I have been able to classify these as nematodes. There seems to be about 30 in the tank that I could notice. I noticed about 5 cyclops which was a increase from the two or three I noticed last week. There were many daphnia, around 100 which seemed to be eating the plants in the aquarium, which appeared to have eaten leaves and browning of green spots. My final observation was that I noticed a considerable drop in the water level. The Food tablet was added on Friday October 22, 2010 and here is the information regarding it.
