Week #5 Observations
This week I saw a Water Mite in my MicroAquarium. Water Mites look like fat little spiders. They have a flat, round body with four hairy pairs of legs for swimming. Water Mites eat plants, decaying organisms, and humus. Water Mites swim in slow flowing and shallow water among plants. They live in all freshwater environments, but are more abundant in species and number in slow-moving waters.
