AQUACULTURE

 

Many of the following photographs were captured at Brunswick Community College, Aquaculture Program Lab located in Brunswick County, North Carolina.

These are the first true microscopy images I've ever captured. Proud day! Been looking forward to this for a long time.

    WOW, Sharon.  What a neat shot!  The only thing I see in there is a
    chain of diatoms that I can't identify -- it could be /Melosira,/
    /Skeletonema/, or /Biddulphia/.
    
    I would love to see more plankton photos when you get them!  I enjoyed
    the other photos also.
