On 10/29 in my observations I was able to see that the three midges that I had seen before had grown and were considerably bigger that when I last observed them. Although there were no measurements I could now see them with the naked eye as I could not before.The Urocentrum that I had observed before were not easily found and I believe there are now less of them. New species that I found were Uplotes which is a common Hypotrich ciliate and there were many.
Litonotus which can be recognized by its long neck (only saw one) and Tachysoma. The Halteria and Rotofors were still present but I was not able to find the Paramesiums that I had seen the week before.
