Hi everyone...
I took a feces from qt.
The feces is look normal maybe it touched the qt bottom I’m not sure....
I can’t recognize what this round thing is... maybe parasite maybe not.
I thought it’s cildonilia but It doesn’t moving and cildonilia is...
I have a short microscope video of it.

It shows on the firs 30 seconds...
Does anyone recognize it??

The round things don't look like anything I recognize as a parasite. Maybe its something from the food. The moving protozoa you are watching later in the video could be a lot of things, but there is only one of them, so it isn't something to worry about unless there are many of them. If the magnification is less than 100x its too big to be spironucleus.

Does the poop look normal, and the appetite?

I take samples every ones in a while and check it under the microscope..
The poop looks normal....

I think maybe it’s Trichodina...(the round things at the firs seconds of the film)
But it’s doesn’t moveing.....

It has the shape of trichodina, but trichodina is an external parasite of the skin, and should not be in a fecal sample.

Yes I know but maybe the poop touched the bottom of the tank....
I thought maybe it’s eggs but i think it’s to big for that
