I never saw one either under the microscope. We looked at pond water with water fleas and such and we looked at onion and tomato cells. That's what really got me hooked up and ignited my love for biology. Sadly in school the microscope time was very limited. At University I then was able to work with the microscope again. Then met bacteria and viruses under the microscope and body cells. I loved to sit for hours in dark and quiet rooms, just to examinate my probe under the microscope and take notes about it and experiment with it. Up to this day, using the microscope always gets me hyped up. I love looking at things under the microscope. This tiny world of unseen things. It's just amazing.

My Dad was a science teacher, and though you're surely younger than me, this reminds me of him. He used to do things like this for his students. It's great to show how nature finds a way.

Having been a biology student I remember only drawing hydra without actually seeing a live one in action! Thankyou mr. Atomic shrimp

When I was in primary school back in the late 1950s, my favourite subject was Nature Studies (primary school science). We performed an experiment similar to this. We boiled up a handful of grass to form a nutrient soup. When it cooled, we inoculated it with an eyedropper full of water from a puddle after rain. Each day we took a drop and examined it under a microscope. After a few days we observed micro organisms in the drop. As the days rolled on the population grew and grew until it was teeming with micro organisms. I was fascinated. As the days rolled on the population began to subside, until eventually they died out to the point that we could no longer see any. When the resources were exhausted, the dense population could no longer be sustained. I presumed a subset of the organisms continued in the soup. This has stuck with me all my life, and I took it as a good example of how a closed environment has limited resources. While not a perfect analogy of our planet, it does show what can happen when there are limited resources, and limited space for our waste.

BFKC the amount of detail etched into insects is remarkable, nothing like a leopard or a bird would possess, such tiny life existing unseen by us, in each pond is a world, there is no evil in bugs, only survival.

Fascinating. You have a pet hydra! I remember studying those many years ago in O-level biology. I never really grasped at the time how small they were.

Scooped my pond-water-and-plants in March 2019, and it's still going strong. Plants are actually sending shoots, a slug that's been there from day 1 is larger and healthy, and a bunch of shrimp swim around. I've never opened it.

I'm in NYC, and we're having a bad time of it. But I wanted you to know that my "Play PRANG!" t-shirt gives me a smile every time I wear it. Cheers and thanks.

Very cool, although I expect the tiny crustaceans will eventually perish, they will most likely breed up until there's no longer food for them. Might defeat the purpose of the study, but adding some food in the form of goldfish flakes will really let their population take off.

Well that was fascinating. I once brought some duckweed home as I was trying to make a little pond. I put it into a big glass bowl outside, while I tried to get the little pond to hold water & the most beautiful minature crested newt appeared out of this duckweed. I was delighted & watched it grow but then a bird came along & chopped it in half. I was young & sadly had not realised I needed to protect it from birds.

Seems one of your limiting factors in survivability is that the jar is sealed, so there is no chance for even osmotic re-oxygenation. Perhaps v2.0 could be one jar that is sealed, and another that is (relatively, can't have flatworms busting up the flat) open to the air.
