These tiny red dots are Tiggerpods. This jar feels more alive than some of my freshwater ecospheres.

Tiggerpods are extremely resistant to almost everything. I just put a few scuds, tiny snails and a macroalgae in there and it looks good so far. My >3.0% salinity jar is also pretty healthy and survived temperatures above 30°C. It's around months old and a few snails, copepods and tiny worms are living in there. The macroalgae (Caluerpa something) is growing fast. I will post pictures soon.
Interesting, I look forward to seeing updates!
