Scale under microscope

[EnriqueP]

This is what a discus scale looks like under the microscope. Kacey and I were on an expedition today in my fishroom. Has anyone here photographed internal hexamita?

and this is what the gut looks like (see the scale in there for reference?)

You're only on about 40x, maybe 100x...to see protozoa hex you're going to have to make a slide smear and go to 400x

[EnriqueP]

Yes, it is only 60X. This scope does not go to 400X, and at 200X ... not enough light. That is what I remembered also, that Hex is small.

Thanks Graham.
