Thank you for the information! My husband and I made a video that I am not sure what kind of microorganism it is. It is from the water in our fish tank. Looks like a little tree that expands and then retracts. facebook.com/brandon.zy.moore/videos/1455166041180521/UzpfSTEwMDAwMDYxNDE4MTU4MjoxNDU1MTY2ODI3ODQ3MTA5/ Would love to know what kind of microorganism it is. Any idea?
Using my microscope yesterday, I actually found some ciliate running around a few paramecium
My wife gave me a microscope for my B-Day about 18 months ago. Almost ever day since then has been full of new discoveries. Life is an amazing thing. Good job on your video.
What an excellent wife! How is the microscopy going now? If you get bored with any of it try getting a piece of polarized plastic (Internet!) enough for a piece in your eyepiece and one between your light source and the specimen. Rotate the lower one until the cross-polarising cuts out most of the light. Then look at hairs (light coloured or white probably best) or crystals (eg of fertiliser) or shredded bits of clear plastic etc. I used to encourage students to use their cell phones on the microscope -fiddly but it works! I have just been dusting down my old trinocular in the loft and tried my video camera on it: it works! Look out for my microscope videos soon! (as soon as I clean up the loft enough to sit down...:)

Thank you so much for sharing this. I don't know why, but I was close to tears..life is everywhere and in everything.
It sure is!
I was close to tears as well. I remembered my youth and the hours I spent doing just what was happening in the video. My thoughts.
Thank you God for pond scum and for letting us get a glimpse of your wonderous plan.
Might sound a bit weird but I just find the analogy of this astounding, a higher being studying and looking down into the details of a different world, unlike ours. A water kindgom where its creatures don't know and may never know any other world outside of their own. Their water to them is perhaps like our air to us. And what other worlds are there that we humans don't see?
Isnt that God?!?
The universe is a fractal. I wonder what that pond life "sees"
the universe ISNT a fractal. If you need a shape, it's more of a ball with varying degrees of stuff aggregation inside it.
Your explanation excludes what may exist outside of the ball. We shouldn't assume that because it has not been detected it does not exist.
We assume that because we are larger we are the higher beings. We believe that the knowledge we gain from our creations makes us superior. Do we ever consider the possibility that microscopic life forms created us to expand their knowledge? It is possible that the 10% of our being that is made up of human cells is just a vessel for the 90% of our being that is made up of microbial life forms. Perhaps we are all working in symbiosis for a common goal, to populate the heavens.
this is how wonderful life is
True, true...
"Sooner or later, everything dies."
I purchased one cheap Chinese microscope just to play around along with my son.....and looked at many youtube videos just to find out how different things can be but yours one is just no comparison....thanks for sharing such a wonderful experience
This amazes me. I am buying a microscope this weekend; and I'm definitely going to record this myself! I'm interested to see what I can find in my local creek
The Teacher's Pet You have to prep the slide tho,not just drop some water on it.
"ohhh a wiggly!"
hahahahaha
dude, you're hilarious
"closer... closer!!! where are you going!"
and the music is beautiful :')
It was awesome indeed.
This sort of stuff is simply fascinating to me, thank you for sharing your great video with us.
Magnificent! This is absolutely beautiful!
I loved this video! "Focus" "more light!" "Back out"
I felt like I was 14 again looking at stuff with my microscope. I only had whatever was low tier in the 60's but it was enough and created a flame that brought me to my current lot in life - a medical microbiologist.
Nothing wrong with that but I'm almost ready to retire and I've begun to realize that I can't imagine life without looking into a microscope.
Thank goodness there are nice microscopes to be had for a reasonable price in this day and age instead of Identifying bacteria and determining sensitivities I can go back to when I was 14 and spend hours looking at pond scum.
Thank you for this video.
10:51 "Nooo the dude is gone..." LOL
I, too, have lots of discoveries in my microscopic journey. Keep enjoying the microworld!
Thank you for adding suitable music. Too many that add techno and shit music in videos that doesn't fit in.
Good video with good background music and of course awesome protozoa! Yes mostly algae, esp. diatoms.
what a lovely show of simple life...i miss my days at the collage of biology.
Great variety of microbes in that sample. Thanks for sharing.
This is oddly satisfying and relaxing. 👍
I found that if you rehydrate the slide many of the critters come back to life.
Thank you for posting this!
without these organisms we're nothing
I want to get into this. Thanks for posting. Very cool!
That's a lot of variety for one drop of water. Nice sample!
Wonderful video thanks so much.👍🏻❤️
Keep up the lovely work :-)
:) I thoroughly enjoyed watching your video. :)
Thanks for sharing.
This is soooo relaxing
someone should make an animated movie about bacteria or something
Social Experiment I was thinking the same thing 10 min ago
We already got animated series about human cells and bacteria ‘s in there too
It’s called osmosis jones it’s a kids movie
I put a couple of such films on UA-cam.
ua-cam.com/video/UB35HepRP7o/v-deo.html
ua-cam.com/video/ocZnBJ-Yv8U/v-deo.html
There already is: ua-cam.com/video/eyuNrm4VK2w/v-deo.html
The book was written in 1884.
Finally found the green protist with the 4 balls in the center - Algae, Gonium. Neat! Thanks for posting!
This is amazing.
"OOH COOL"
So professional XD
That's how you know they are a real scientist.
Great video. THank you very much.
I have a question.
On the screen of my laptop I can see only small part of what I see on microscope. Do you have any idea how i can see all of the vision? Thank you very much.
Thanks for such a nice and interesting video.
This is amazing life has some amazing things that we are yet to discover
where did you get this water? All the dirty water i can find around where i am has way less, i usually see about 3 living cells. And just a bunch of dirt.
If you look at my second video you can see the stream that I collected the water from : ua-cam.com/video/guAcLiP4DlM/v-deo.html
Great video!
Ordered my first microscope today: AmScope B120C-E1. Looks like a good one. Very excited.
Nice! Do tell more when you got it and played around a bit.
Your narration amuses me :)
axnyslie "dis is sumtin"
Amazing!
I love this stuff!
It's so cool that there's literally another type of universe and we can't even see it without our microscope
Its beautiful man 💖
Que hermoso es el mundo microscópico!!
This is so cool!
With the little snowflake-shaped multicell rafts, why were they jittering around randomly? Brownian motion?
So... We're watching Spore...
Yep...just like spore.....
I find this comment... amusing
Fascinating!!
I've only ever looked in a microscope one time but it was enough to make me obsessed with the tiny little fellas that are everywhere :> I found a nice rotifer that time and it was very cute
Thanks ! what a great video. May I ask you how many magnifications does your microscope have? I got one for my kids but only could see small little moving dots. thanks
The scope could go up to X2000, but I never go so high. I stay around X100-X400.
lol, "Oh I'm so small"... I just bought this microscope, can't wait to use it...
the song makes me cry.
one of the first youtube videos I ever watched... I think
Good start for you!
Amazing! thank you!
How do you like this microscope? And how come you chose this one over some of the less expensive ones? I ask because I’m shopping around for one right now and tempted to just grab the cheapest one that has a usb hookup available
part 3 please i like this kind of video
Came for the pond water. Stayed for the commentary.
Wonderful video! Could you please post the objectives, and ore magnification used in filming this video?
I love how you come across the spikey creature at around 5:40. I found out they are heliozoan recently. They are amazing to observe. I'm not sure if it's releasing waste build-up, but they form a bubble on one side by slowly filling, then suddenly and quickly releasing whatever fluid in an instant. You can see little vent like structures on the end of the bubble for a brief moment when they "deflate". They hunt/capture paramecium and possibly euglena. I see euglena run into them and the flagella seems to get tangled on the spikes of the heliozoan. It's either the heliozoan has trapped and will eat the euglena, or the euglena is feeding off of the heliozoan's waste. I need to research what I've seen.
How do you prepare a slide for 'live pond life'? Thanks,
Marc C nothing special. Have a look at my other video. Think i do it in that one.
very good video i like that
Too much fun!! I wish you lived next door and we could drink a beer or two and do this a couple times a week. Your comments were just exactly what I would have been saying. Nice job!
=) Maybe we do live next door?
I have several cases of damn fine craft beer and I cook some mean barbecue. If you live next door you probably already know this. If not, I would love to get rid of a neighbor I have with annoying dogs and adopt you. I also have a small wine cellar you may enjoy. Bring the microscope- I've got the rest!!!
Sound like a plan.
Watching this while listening to techno was funny. It seems like all the critters are dancing.
I was just wondering if you wouldn't mind sharing what type of pond you got this from? Was it freshwater? Marshy pond, swamp pond, ect.
If you have a look at my second video: ua-cam.com/video/guAcLiP4DlM/v-deo.html you can see the stream that I got the water in the begining of the video.
Firs of all thanks for foing thisI have questions1- is that stool examination 2- i am microbiologist how can i get digital microscope cameras i need help
In my science glass we used microscopes and we got to look at Volvox (live in ponds) Blepharisma (live in ponds) and Vinegar Eels (live in unpasteurized vinegar)
Good video that site has collected water?.
How much toyal magnification did you use mostly?I'm planning to buy a 1500x compound microscope,so can i see these all?
But that was an awesome video!
x100 to x200 mag.
I’m having a lot of trouble with my am scope microscope, I’m seeing stuff that looks like it might be bacteria but it shows up even when Im not looking at something specific, I wanna see cool stuff like this and I even got some lake water but I still can’t find any
It is not bacteria you see, it is dust in or outside of your microscope. In lake water you should see stuff. You can even take tapwater and see things swiming past.
So many micro life in drop of water imagine the scale and no of life in a fresh water pond. WOW !! Thanks dude.
or in a water planet
+romerezeboy Yeah... and somehow they don't suffer from over-population :P Nature can regulate itself all well.
Whats the name of thing on 9.10 min i saw too but i dont know its name
Absolutely amazing. Very nice work. what would we see if we could go a million times closer?
A million times closer, you would see individual atoms.
And then what's inside the electrons and protrons? Is there an end to the depth we could go?
7:12 What are those things? They're pretty awesome.
They looks like mini UFO
Awesome!
what are those striped lines?
Pretty clean picture. I got my glasses dirty and have no idea how to clan them out.
I feel so nerd right now....but I love it
the square creature made out of round bits four in the center... you can get that shape with neodimium magnets...
Auful, but also beautiful!! :)
cute cute cute! I must buy microscope
If you use glycerin it makes protozoa move more slowly.
Imagine trying to explain to one of those how an internal combustion engine operates. This is what a super advanced race of aliens would think attempting to explain the origin of the universe to us.
"I'm a lemon!" lol What i was thinking, so funny
Probably the first youtube video ive ever seen
You have alot to chatch up on... =)
I don't know what's going on with my planted shrimp tank, I have not added any weird chemicals for months, but my plants on the left half of the tank are suddenly disintegrating. And when I try viewing the water from the substrate or the filter in a microscope, there is nothing moving even at 600x.
Sounds wird, if you take tapwater there are things moving...
How far does this microscope you are using zoom?
In theory x2000, but I never go that far.
first time in my life seeing this sort of thing....to think most people never see these things....
"Cool"
- Rotifer continues moving
"Stop it"
- Rotifer stops moving, awaiting commands
7:18 are those pandorina colony ?
Woo small life 😍😍😍
I have seen some rotifer s and algae kindly mention the name sir
I dont know the names...
Cool Sea Lemon
Why type of microscope do you have? How much did it cost ?
Amscope T490B just like it say in the description. Price about $500.
GeekJoan on Ebay the price is about $350 (without camera adapters and shipment) :p
www.ebay.com/itm/AmScope-T490B-DK-40X-2000X-Trinocular-Compound-Darkfield-Microscope-/140926607182
they are quite cute
I am in awe....cause literally I can't see anything in my microscope with a drop of seawater except for some floating particles.
what magnification is this?
x100 - x200
Can i see microbes in x600?
amazing )))))))))))
how much would a microscope like this cost?
About $300.
This is amazing! I was wondering if you would mind ID'ing any of these? I'm just learning about them now so my ID skills are pretty limited haha
I have no ide what this things are called. So you tell me when you learn more...
GeekJoan
Sounds good, deal :) That's an awesome camera set up though. I'm stuck trying to line up my smartphone's camera with the eye-pieces.
I think I saw a waterbear about halfway through the vid.
What magnification were you using? And are those at 7:30 alive?
x100 - x200
