I’m looking for a cheap ($100 or under) microscope for fish disease/algae/bacteria identification, just looking for some reviews or experience on better ones (I understand a $100 microscope will act like one haha).

i plan on upgrading eventually, just need something for now that wont break after 2 weeks or arrive not working.

Check on line auctions, craigslist and marketplace in your area. It might take a few weeks or months but you could find an exceptional deal. I've seen inverted microscopes which are much more useful for looking ar stuff in small amounts of water rather than slides go for 100-200.
