A crowded ciliates party!

Very nice.

Very interesting, great to see the features labelled. Very nicely-done.

Nicely detailed, also liked the pointers

Hi Luis,
really great video, interesting and beautiful at the same time. I also like it very much how you mixed in the labels. My own video editing knowledge is very basic, I still have to find out how to do things like this.

Thanks for your kind comments.

Those cilia just look gorgeous.

Very nice video! Did you culture the Spirostomum in order to have so many in such a clean filming environment? If so, how did you isolate some individuals and then culture them?

It is a natural sample. I was the first surprised by the huge amount of Spirostomum collected in a totally random way

Very nice images and videography.

That is a very neat video, Carlos. Congratulations and thanks for sharing.

I was also wondering if you had isolated and cultured these Spirostomum.

So... this is a random drop of water from a sample. It looks very clean. Do you have any advice on how to manage debris on the preparation? I always take a drop of water from the bottom of the recipient, were the organic debris is. The water comes usually with lots of microorganisms, but also with lots of debris.

One more applauding your work. Excellent in all aspects.

Thanks for posting it.

That is excellent! Your videos are top-notch!

Thanks again for your comments!
