A small post to explain how to have a look of the living pelagic organisms in a lake with a bottle and the 25 um mesh.
Fill the bottle with water from below the surface, cut the cap to create an hole and insert the mesh before closing.
The objects bigger than 25 um will stay of the mesh and when all the water is poured, it’s easy to pipette on the mesh the remaining water.
