  2. Thanks for the clue on identification. I only took one pipette sample of water from the seaweed growth on the floating marina. It was amazing to see what life lives in such a small amount of water. These diatoms were very common in the sample. The square shape had me confused as salt crystals are also squarish.
    This is the best reference I have found so far for Australian marine zooplankon
