Microlife video

This is a video about infusoria that I took from the main tub. I also attached a picture below. You should be able to see them moving towards the flashlight.

The microlife density is achieved after adding hay ( just a few pitch, not too much) into the tub, for a duration of 3 weeks for the hay to decompose nicely. Airstone is a must since the rotting hay would quickly foul the water. Of course, the result is faster when I seed the water from a nearby green pond. Had problems of mayfly nymph and dragonfly larva in the tub, which is not betta fry friendly! I think I spend more time catching these buggers then actually taking care of my Bettas xD 

I tried culturing daphnia, had a few floating in the tub but they never seem to multiply quickly. On the other hand, I got lots of other 'stuff' , so this is still a win for me. I prefer infusoria more than microworms because they are nose friendly and I don't have housemates complaining about the smell. ( Had to act like a ninja, hid my microworm cultures under the sink, together with my grindal worms )
