The nematods dont have circumferential muscles. Therefore there movement is very strange. Because of the sudden movents it is not easy to photograph them.

a Nematode in polarized light
I found this Nematode (roundworm) in the Benthos of the sea. It was a little bit more than 3 mm long.

Very nice, especially considering stopping the action in polarized light.
