Spirostomum is a free living ciliate, meaning it is a unicellular organism covered in cilia. They are found in water environments all over the world. They are known for their fast contraction speed.
I used two microscopes recorded through a Nikon D3300 DSLR camera.
Microscopes:
Leica ATC 2000 - 40X, 100X, 400X, 1000X
American Optical One - Ten microscope - 150X, 600X, 1500X
The microscope magnification of each shot is shown in the bottom right-hand corner.
