I looked at this days ago and had no idea on the round things.

The 3rd pic is a peice of a shed or shell from a crustacean. could be anythting from a shrimp to amphipod copepod etc.

Now I realize I do have a clue on the round things.
It is likely a diatom. Coscinodiscus has a similar pattern of near-hexagonal tiles in its silica frustule (shell). Sometimes the inner cell tissue with the chloroplasts will pull away from the edges.

This was a bottle of zooplankton from seachem. Didn't see one in there. Just a piece here and there. Looked like a bunch of bottom barrel **** lol
