Every time I let some film algae build up on the glass, I notice copepods crawling around. I like looking at them through a jeweler’s loupe, and today I noticed quite a few that looked almost crab-shaped, spider like.
I tried to take a picture, but they’re microscopic and it’s really hard to get a good photo. I’ve been trying to look them up online but can’t find anything that looks like these.
Does anybody have any idea what these are called, or can anyone make them out from the picture?
