So, these were from the end of August. I was in a hurry when I shot these, so I only scraped the front glass. The Cat's Paw in the rear center had bleached out and I was trying to nurse it back. Unfortunately, it didn't make it.
Some things have changed, but you get the general idea.

Yep. It's a little petri dish. Actually, I have two going right now (from trying to grab larvae last night). I'm keeping them on my microscope table at the moment. Pretty cool little pico tanks, even though it hurts my neck if I look at it too long (through the microscope). So far, I've seen a little (2-3) colony of copepods as the top of the food chain, some sessile worms, a few very small motile worms, and some algae in the dish that has a few rock chips.
I like that little six-line, too. He likes to incite trouble, though he always runs away before it involves him. I bought a couple of solarensis females to keep the male busy and to keep him from picking on everyone else, but I just lost the male and now the females are battling it out for the right to sex-change. The pj cardinals are spawning pretty regularly, but I haven't managed to catch the male to try to raise their larvae. My rotifer cultures keep crashing, so I haven't been trying too hard anyway. Anyway, thanks!
