Lovely images!

I'm having trouble seeing image #4 as rotifers, however. To me they look more like tintinnid ciliates. Perhaps one of our specialists can chime in?

Thanks, Rik. It is very possible - I am not a specialist in the subject matter! Any corrections will be appreciated.

I collected them from White Rock Pier in White Rock, BC (Canada). If I recall correctly I would have used a 10µm net to trawl the water.

Thanks. I think I'll start making my net.
