Made a new ecosphere after moving! Got sediment and water from India Basin Shoreline Park in SF, and I see plenty of amphipods (of different species even!), other microorganisms, and even a burrowing worm that's gotten quite long.

I also see a bunch of these little pillars coming out of the sediment with these little hairs or antenna sticking out that move from time to time. Does anyone know what these are? Sorry for the poor quality and shaky camerawork!

The jar is closed with no bubbler, has only been opened a couple times, and has survived nearly a month with a sustained population of amphipods, just much smaller than the first week.
