Hi Luis,
The movement of these diatoms is particular and surprising.
Thank you to share.
How do you manage to not have such a clean background ?
Regards
Didier

Merci Didier
Je prélève l'échantillon à l'aide d'une loupe binoculaire et d'une pipette Pasteur en essayant de collecter le moins de débris possible. Une fois sur la lame, j'enlève soigneusement les débris à l'aide de la loupe et de la pipette ou d'une aiguille.

Wow, this is the best micro-video I have ever seen. So strange!

Thanks Lou and Adalbert for such kind comments.
Re: Bacillaria paxillifera: the dancing diatom
Excellent work! Indeed a striking species to watch. This was a very clean and beautiful set-up but when dirt is around it is still fascinating to follow: how it goes about its poking, its exploration method. Collective mind of some strange kind...
