Last and Final Observation

I was surprised to see the lack of moving organisms in my aquarium on this final day of research. I looked for around ten minutes and found absolutely nothing except for one organism. Of course once again it was my friend the cyclops who has been with me from the beginning. I decided to give up on my search for the larger moving organisms and moved on to look for other things. What I did find a lot of was cyanobacteria. Everywhere I looked there was cyanobacteria and other various types of bacteria. Along with the cyanobacteria were other small green celled organisms called colonial algae, which is just a type of algae. I did find a few organisms later on in my research. The first one was a rotifer which is a minute multicellular organism of the phylum Rotifera, that has a wheellike ring of cilia at the end of it. The other types were Euglenoids. These are just small green or colorless flagellate organisms.
The project has finally come to an end. I must say I enjoyed researching what really is in pond water. This makes me think of all of the types of things that are in the water when I am swimming in the lake or the ocean. I learned a lot of new and interesting things about the microsopic world and can only hope to learn more.
