algae: tolypothrix

 first culture arrived Apr. 17, 2018.

added "soil water" medium; the algae seems resistant to beetles/germs/etc.
filaments are a bit visible (appearing more fuzzy than fischerella); colonies forms much smaller balls (appearing as tiny pellets, and not "clouds" of cotton candy)

they create "false" branches, and the branches are tapered at the ends.

(note the heterocysts, and "false" branches)
