A very novel idea Tom Seems as though it would also be energy efficent and we would not have to place the bottle of ice cold Corona in the tank. Hey Charlie, ya got those limes sliced yet?

Hi ya' Charlie
Empty Corona cans don't chill the water much. I could never get a full can to the aquarium
Ken and Cassian
Don't listen to Charlie. Lime juice ain't good for the aquarium. It lowers the ph of the water and you end up with a citrus bog.
You guys

Sorry, Charlie
I quit drinking 7 years ago. I forgot beer came in bottles, too. Longnecks Oh OK The tops stick up above the water so you don't get your fingers wet Right
Aren't we a bunch of goofballs

The details of the algae are quite similar to your images. The club-shaped object is also very similar. I'm wondering if this is a conjugation tube and if other filamentous algae have similar appearing structures. If not, perhaps we are actually looking at the same organism? Temperatures in the tank range from about 50-80 deg F and varies with the ambient temp in the greenhouse. Tank vol=35 gal.

The club shaped object seems to be consistant with Gonatozygon, which is the algae that is in my tank and also appears to be in yours also. It maybe that it is a gamete/gametophyte or some form of germ cell probably. Good photographs Gary, got any of micro critters from the coy pond? You know some protozoa and other parasites reside on the gills of fish and some mycological (fungal) specimens. If you have a goldfish that is expendable it maybe worth a scrape on the gills and be sure to examine the stomach and intestines, coy are pretty expensive to be scraping and gutting around on.

Ken,
I have lots more visual stuff from the greenhouse tank, both still and video. Video (mpg) files are big, requiring a broadband connection or, if dialup, a lot of user patience. Today, I sent email to my website host asking about additional online "disk space." I'll put some video up as soon as I can make the arrangements.
I need some feedback on psuedo-DIC (emboss), the particulars of which I will post in the technical forum area.
