I understand that a 50x to 200x microscope is sufficient for paramecium (and other things) in pond/gutter watter.
The eyeclops claims up to 200x.. but handheld, it wouldn't be much good. Anything in a stand, with up to 200x, would be sufficient. I remember as a kid I had a simple 3 lens 'scope--I think it was 50/100/200 or something--we saw all kinds of things in the gutter water, etc. ~~J On Mon, Nov 22, 2010 at 12:47 AM, Nicholas Thompson < nickthomp...@earthlink.net> wrote: > Thanks for your thoughts on this, Steve.
