    Hey,

    Does anyone here know anything about microscopes, because I need to look at..things that live in ponds, such as Rotiphers and nematode worms. Basically, it would be very, very much preferable to have a USB microscope to see these with, so far heres what I have found (ebay links) :

    Looks very nice, and could be fun for looking at other things with, but I'm not sure whether it would work light-wise, and it's not a typical microscope.

    Would probably work, It looks like a standard microscope.



    Thanks to everyone who answers, rep will be sent your way!
