algae: eucapsis
May. 31st, 2018 07:14 pm culture first arrived Apr. 17, 2018.
added "soil water" medium to its jar (it prefers acidic/peaty water)
seems to be resistant/unaffected by the beetles/germs/etc.
to the naked-eye it appears to be motionless (at the bottom of the jar) and a bit "finer" a dust-blanket, compared to merismopedia.
the colonies are known to be somewhat cube-like, and rather small (cubes of 4, 8, 16, pairs but easily broken), whereas the merismopedia creates similar groups but only as a flat rectangle....
