Guys, I’m getting really addicted to this, but at the same time frustrated with my images (maybe I’m expecting too much from my AmScope microscope )
Does anybody knows what is this? I used 100x oil and it’s from pond water. Raw unprocessed video from my phone.

Don't know what it is, but to me it sure looks like Brownian motion (rather than bacteria or little critters)... very small particles moving randomly after collisions with molecules in the liquid.
(In out microscopes we commonly see this in Closterium, where, at the tips, crystals of barium or calcium sulfate are constantly bouncing around)

You should hone your skills using a 20x or a 40x on larger animalcules.
Remember that the condenser should be close to the bottom of the slide and that you should start with the condenser diaphragm open and
only close it just the amount needed to improve contrast, that usually translates to 75% - 80% open.
As for IDs, one tends to get more answers when posting such queries in the Identification help section.

Thanks!
I’m getting a new microscope with a more powerful led and trinocular. I hope that helps. I’ll continue my leaning journey
