Did you know that Daphnia (water flea) are used as diagnostics to monitor pollution in water?
I’m rather fascinated by these tiny water fleas and am currently trying to reproduce them in glass (not to scale). This has proved rather more challenging than expected as it requires blowing perfectly round bubbles and then cutting them to exact dimensions.
Last week, I had an ah ha moment and swiftly went to Homebase where I purchased some perfectly round lightbulbs of just the right size. Now all, I need to do is figure out how to attach antennas, hearts, guts, eggs without cracking the lightbulbs. Wish me luck!
