Hi everyone,

I am new to ImageJ and it looks like a very powerful tool.  I am growing
algae and need to perform cell counts to determine the cell density
every day.  I would like to reduce the time it takes to do this as
currently I am doing it manually.  I understand that there are plugins
available which can help me count the cells but I have not had much
luck.  What can you recommend for automated cell counting, are there any
tutorials available?

One of the problems I have encountered is that the grid interferes with
the count.  

Here is an example of an image that I want to process:
