There’s a good deal of new growth in the plants – those tall, thin things weren’t there a couple of months ago. I’m not sure how healthy they are; some of the leaves are a little discolored. The top ends of the older plants seem to have been bitten or cut off. They come to an abrupt end with no “tapering off” of their leaves. Curious. There’s no sign of any animals in there that could do it.

There are quite a few dust mote sized swimming things. One of which ls large enough to show some color – I call it “Bluey”, because it is clearly a dark blue. There are also at least three tiny snails; maybe four. It’s rare to see more than two at the same time. One of them is the size of a sunflower seed. I can make out details with my little pocket magnifying glass, but nothing to give me a clue as to what species it might be.

There are also a lot of dark flecks that don’t move (at least when I’m watching). They might be dirt, they might be dead things, they might be their own organisms. They are too small for me to tell.

I’m honestly surprised that it’s lasted this long.

I think it’s time to add a little more water.
