are there any pictures I can get on the Hydra(genus)?

[edit] Beautiful?

"Hydras are beautiful" needs a citation and attribution. Wikipedia does not claim that things are beautiful. -Silence 06:05, 24 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Hydra vulgaris?

Isn't there a Hydra vulgaris as well?

Yes, it's a synonym for Hydra attenuata (see [1]). AxelBoldt 19:09, 14 May 2006 (UTC)

What is "hydra are low power microscopical life forms" supposed to mean? It just sounds like gibberish. --scienceman 21:38, 2 August 2006 (UTC)

The original text read "Hydras are beautiful low power microscopical objects and are often studied by biologists. "

This has been mutated to the current form - it appears that some editors regard "Beautiful" as a POV statement ! Velela 08:11, 3 August 2006 (UTC)
