Final Observation

There has been an even greater increase in cyanobacteria than the previous week. The cyanobacteria can be found throughout the aquarium. The filamentous algae is still growing just not at the same rate as before, the algae seem to be more concentrated at the bottom of the aquarium. There are many diatom skeletons settled near the bottom of the aquarium, along the sediment layer. There was a new discovery, I found an amoeba around the middle of the aquarium. There are colonized algae right above the sediment layer, they look like a semi transparent green patch. I was unable to find any living eugleniods in the aquarium.
