Under the surface of a freshwater pond, invisible organisms graze on reefs of photosynthesizing algae and bacteria. Explore this shimmering, jewel-like realm, home to single-celled ciliates including Euplotes, Coleps, and Paramecia, as well as 1000-celled animals called Rotifers. This program was produced in collaboration with Jared Leadbetter PhD at the California Institute of Technology.
