Artemia Salina
Sharing these images of what I believe is Artemia Salina. I had a real challenge getting good images of the nymphs, so I mostly focused on the adults with one exception.
Artemia Eggs:
Tail of a nymph:
Adult animal's tail in Darkfield:
Adult animal, head. POL:
Adult animal, head. Pol with retarder.
Closeup of eye of adult animal:
Full body of adult animal. Male showing the "horns" of the head.

Re: Artemia Salina
Fantastic images, thanks hkv. I still see boxed kits of these crusteaceans selling in toy section of stores..seems to have outlasted 'ant farm' toy kits.
The creatures are marketed boldly as: "Sea Monkies". I used to hatch these eggs to feed hydras I was keeping.
charlie guevara (BTW) please try vicous 1.5% methylcellulose to slow down these pesky and active meiofauna for your image captures. charlie guevara
