Default Copepod husbandry on window ledge
Will I get caught? From the green-glassware collection I 'borrowed' a simple tall green glas for my Copepod farm!

We had 82 degrees F a few days (in 4/09?!!), so I put an icecube in with 'my herd'. Useing my Nikon Micro-Nikkor+PK extension tube+ Cannon T-ring (glued the T-ring to the ext-tube)...with thisIY setup I imaged some of my window ledge Copepods.

Hand-held the camera, hummed 'cow-boy tunes' such as:"Get along little doggies", thought of the openning soundtrack ("Rollin-rollin-rollin") to early 1960's television show:"Raw hide".

Don't tell 'them Copepod-doggies' (it might spook them to stampede!), but I'm seriously thinking of introduceing Hydras to my Copepod ranch.

Hi, Peter, the domestic goddess seems in my view to tolerate many domestic microscopy uses of the fridge/ the glass ware...but as I am deemed the yardperson...I had (we now live in:'fingerlakes/NY/US)...both outdoor garden tanks/microcosms, and an indoor cluttered study with ...yes another 30 gallon tank...and my downstate microscope bench.

And yes,Mitch, every one except my spouse and son, all else thought that primarily a:'good luck plant in vase'! charlie guevara, fingerlakes/US
