- I loooooooove this species - the little auricles that pop out are amazing! They're also pretty huge as far as rotifers go and, this is going to sound crazy, but I think they might be sort of social? I always see them palling around with each other on the slides, almost like bonded pair cats.
too good
Nice video :)
...so is that the ID of the mystery heart of gold rotifer? Crispy footage as usual!
So I think so, but also I don't see the same sac of crystals on this one - perhaps the other had a medical condition?
@@diettoms or a different Notommata species ? subspecies ?
@@apank21 Could be! If you go to this point in my recent VOD - you can see the mysterious birefringent sac make another appearance in polarized DF illumination! th-cam.com/video/UXWBYkLcppQ/w-d-xo.html
It is filmed with your new camera?
Yes indeed! The old A7III will be relegated to a facecam or maybe as a secondary cam in future videos. All my work will be with the FX3 unless otherwise indicated!
I like darkfield but I just cant get friend with Phase Contrast. ^-^
DIC is of course unbeaten. Both in price and performance 😄
Haha, I sort of agree about phase contrast but, for SOME things, it can look kinda nice - I like how spirogyra looks in PC. It's best suited for small and/or nearly transparent stuff, though. It is especially useful for making bacteria stand out!
