Music: Morning Stroll by josh kirsch media right productions from YouTube audio library 00:00 Title November 25th, 2016 00:05 I found this nymph in my aquarium a month after I got some water plants from the lakes of Central park of NYC. Apparently, it hatched from an egg I did not wash off from the water plants. 00:24 Thanks to the help of YouTubers for identifying my previous "water bug". I know it is a dragonfly nymph. It has a different color suggesting that it is a different type of dragonfly. It may take many long months for the nymph to evolve into a dragonfly. 00:51 I want to keep this one in a smaller aquarium for easier observations. Well, the smaller aquarium does not make it easier to spot the nymph. There are weeks when I don't get a single glimpse of my nymph. It knows how to hide by staying still for hours in anticipation of prey. Have fun and happy Dragonfly nymph :) Blog: http://rndmbits.blogspot.com/2017/01/dragonfly-nymph-encounter.html More fun on my website www.fewdoit.com
