Rotifers mostly live in fresh watre environments, however some can live in salt water and damp soil.
Rotifers belong to the Animalia kingdom. Rotifers are aquatic animals that can be found in moist soil and freshwater environments.
The rotifers make up a phylum of microscopic and near-microscopic pseudocoelomate animals. They were first described by Rev. John Harris in 1696, and other forms were described by Anton van Leeuwenhoek in 1703.
These are called microscopic animals for example dust mites, spider mites or rotifers, which are filter feeders that are usually found in fresh water.

Live to improve yourself, live to become better than who you were yesterday. Don't just live to live like sheep :)

Rotifers are made of what structures
Rotifers belong to the Animalia kingdom. Rotifers are aquatic animals that can be found in moist soil and freshwater environments.
Volvox are eaten by small aquatic organisms such as certain species of zooplankton, rotifers, and some aquatic invertebrates. They serve as a food source at the base of the aquatic food chain.
Not likely. Rotifers are too small. You could try live brine shrimp OR a high quality pellet food like New Life Spectrum Thera A pellets. Brine eggs and the pellets are both available at www.bigalsonline.com
Rotifers (Rotifera) are invertebrates found mainly in freshwater but can occur also in virtually any aquatic environment. A paper by Hegers (2008) "Global diversity of rotifers (Rotifera) in freshwater" might be helpful to you.
No, rotifers do not harm humans. They do not even pose a risk to humans if they are consumed in water because they do not attach to the stomach.

It is a microscopic.
Rotifers use a structure called a mastax to grind up their food, which is then moved into their digestive system. Some rotifers are filter feeders, while others are scavengers, feeding on organic debris or microorganisms in their environment. They mainly feed on algae, bacteria, detritus, and small protozoa.
