At the start of the video what is the pink/red inflating deflating thing at the start of the video.

Great video though.... though not sure on the music maybe something from LOTR would be better

It was a maggot that I was hoping it would feed on but it wasn't hungry lol!

The music is a pain in the ars£ mate!! I have no sound card in the pc so it's pot luck what I pick hahaha

Nicely done Matt, I enjoyed watching that. It was fascinating watching it methodically clean itself

Cool new mantid Video is great - filming macro stuff is really hard with the lack of error on focus being critical. Maybe edit - cut the the end off.

Very nice video, Matt. Which DSLR and lens did you use to record this? On a tripod, right?

Sorry @orionmystery I have only just seen this, it was taken using a tripod, a canon 6d and the mpe
