    Turns out my phone camera does pretty well at high magnifications!

    My tank has life! Very small life.

    The wriggler by the water surface in the video I'm hoping is a detritus worm instead of a mosquito larva, I'll keep an eye on it...

    Under the reflective surface of the water, a white wormy thing is having a disco party.

    Apparently I can only do one video per post - so here is a small white creature of some kind making its way down the side of some driftwood:

    A brown cliff-face looking piece of driftwood has a white dot whirling and spinning its way downwards.

    Finally, some little whitish somethings in the water - I think this is swimming rather than Brownian motion, though I cannot be completely sure...

    Still quite impressed that I can use my phone to help me see my new pet microfauna 🥰

    Some bright green stalks and small leaves have some small grey-white dots floating around seemingly purposefully in the water around them.
