The old plastic vials contain a mixture of distilled water and alcohol to preserve the aquatic insects. The vials sometimes leak, causing the samples to dry out. EPCAMR has nearly 120 vials of macro invertebrates that have been used at hundreds of environmental education programs throughout the coal region.<\/p>\n<p>Previously, the vials were placed in a bug viewer to magnify the macros only from the side. The specimens could not be viewed from the top of the viewer. The 3-D two-way viewers can be used for a variety of objects, including leaves, flowers, and of course, macro invertebrates. The viewers have a top lens that enables the students to view a specimen at 6 times its size, while the lower lens views a specimen from the underside at 4 times its size. The 3-D two-way viewer is a perfect observation tool for both the field and the classroom. It is very durable and kid-friendly, as are the vials.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_4326\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4326\" data-attachment-id=\"4326\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/epcamr.org\/home\/2015\/epcamr-watershed-outreach-interns-create-new-macros-on-ice-to-compliment-epcamr-environmental-education-programs\/bugs\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/epcamr.org\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/bugs.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"1081,604\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"DragonFly Nymph\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;DragonFly Nymph on ice!&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;DragonFly Nymph on ice!&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/epcamr.org\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/bugs-1024x572.jpg\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-4326\" src=\"http:\/\/epcamr.org\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/bugs-300x168.jpg\" alt=\"DragonFly Nymph on ice!\" width=\"300\" height=\"168\" srcset=\"https:\/\/epcamr.org\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/bugs-300x168.jpg 300w, https:\/\/epcamr.org\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/bugs-1024x572.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/epcamr.org\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/bugs.jpg 1081w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-4326\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span style=\"font-size: 8pt;\">DragonFly Nymph on ice!<\/span><\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_4325\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4325\" data-attachment-id=\"4325\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/epcamr.org\/home\/2015\/epcamr-watershed-outreach-interns-create-new-macros-on-ice-to-compliment-epcamr-environmental-education-programs\/20150717_113347\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/epcamr.org\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/20150717_113347.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"3264,1836\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;2.2&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;SM-G900V&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1437132826&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;4.8&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;320&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.05&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Mold resembling an ice cube tray\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;Here are a few of the new resin macro invertebrates &amp;#8220;on ice&amp;#8221; in the mold.&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Here are a few of the new resin macro invertebrates &amp;#8220;on ice&amp;#8221; in the mold.&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/epcamr.org\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/20150717_113347-1024x576.jpg\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-4325\" src=\"http:\/\/epcamr.org\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/20150717_113347-300x169.jpg\" alt=\"Here are a few of the new resin macro invertebrates &quot;on ice&quot; in the mold.\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" srcset=\"https:\/\/epcamr.org\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/20150717_113347-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/epcamr.org\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/20150717_113347-1024x576.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-4325\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span style=\"font-size: 8pt;\">&#8220;Macros On Ice&#8221; in the mold<\/span><\/p><\/div>\n<p>The new samples are created by pouring clear polyester casting resin into a mold, resembling an ice cube tray, that holds duplicate macro invertebrate samples from the Peek-A-Bug collection.
