Hi Folks,

Well... Wadda day!  I got some research movies made!!!   And the idea is sound.  All I have to do is get enough movies recorded that at least some of them show food capture. 

The rub is... that will not be easy.  One thing that most people forget is that when one magnifies something through a microscope, that size isn't the only thing that is magnified.  As result of the process velocity is also magnified, and the feeding process is fast.  I did happen to actually see food captured and eaten, so that I can describe it, but getting a movie is going to be difficult.  Nonetheless, my idea about what happens appears to be sound.

I plan on calling the process, "Hydrodynamic Entrapment." 

If I get some relatively good short movies, I may post some here.  


Cheers, Ron
