<p>Just found these online (not used before):</p>
<p>Australia: <a href="http://www.southernbiological.com/specimens/living-specimens-and-supplies/plants-and-physarum/l2-30-physarum-slime-mould-live/" target="_blank">http://www.southernbiological.com/specimens/living-specimens-and-supplies/plants-and-physarum/l2-30-physarum-slime-mould-live/</a></p>

<p>The kits often come with instructions for experiments, but you can also find these online, for example: <a href="http://www.sciencebuddies.org/science-fair-projects/project_ideas/MicroBio_p028.shtml#summary" target="_blank">http://www.sciencebuddies.org/science-fair-projects/project_ideas/MicroBio_p028.shtml#summary</a></p>

<p>Happy experimenting! And please share your results on slimoco...</p>
