This is the best photo I have taken so far. Camera is Canon A400, 3.2mp. These little creatures have a lifespan of about 6 months in temporary pools like fairy shrimp and Triops. When threatened they close up in their shells and look just like a tiny clam. This one is an adult about 1/2 inch long. I got 1 good pic out of about 50 blurry ones. That is a Daphnia off the right of its antenna.
