Creating a Lake Ecosphere │ An ECOSYSTEM within a SEALED glass JAR!
In this video I visit a lake to create a new ecosphere. This ecosphere is very interesting as it contains aquatic isopods. As far as I can tell these isopods are the main prey species within the ecosphere. They can often be seen exploring their new habitat, however they're quick to spook and even filming them caused some to flee. The ecosystem also contains 2 different species of planaria. The first planaria are smaller, brownish grey and hunt worms and protozoans. The second species of planaria is known as the Milk-white Planaria (Dendrocoelum lacteum). I am very familiar with the Milk-white planaria as it is my favourite species of flatworm. They are much larger than other planarians. Instead of hunting worms or protozoans this species hunts invertebrates and aquatic insects. I was very happy to be able to film this species hunting for my subscribers to watch. I'm uncertain if the isopod population will be able to coexist with such a large predator, but I am hopeful for the future. The ecosphere also hosts leeches, which usually spend their time near the surface and exploring the glass. I don't like leeches and haven't had much luck with them in ecospheres before. I doubt they'll breed within this ecosphere. I look forward to watching this ecosphere develop over time and I hope to film many update videos of it in the foreseeable future.
