Pond water sample matured for two weeks or so contains several species of protists. The water is partly covered with mucous-like film which incorporates a dense biofilm, partly translucent, partly dark and nearly opaque.

Nice flagellates, Don!

You really go up with the magnification. Were you using the 60x objetive?
