Seems
we just get started, and before you know it; comes the time we’ve got to say so
long…
I
was reluctant to say the least, about the idea of moving onto another subject
after the effort preparing to identify the larva of crustaceans, copepods, and cnidarian
at their various stages. So I set up the
new samples and connected the pumps but after a search in each hoping to locate
something alive, and after a conversation of time remaining, I have decided to
make replacement preparations for an alternate project.
I
will no time soon forget gazing through the glass in amazement, and coming
across valuable essential information that I will share in this final entry for
the next investigator and hope for their success.
Zooplankton

William
Johnson also shared on his site the secret to slowing down the plankton
species; its clove oil. Clove oil can be purchased at most any pharmacist over
the counter, it’s an old toothache remedy. It apparently aestheticizes them
temporarily.
