marimo moss balls
Something to consider; I have 6 marimos in a 55 gal. 3 came from a LFS that kept them in their tanks, the other 3 from a LFS that kept them in seperate cups (like Betta cups). The 3 that were kept in cups have done WONDERFULLY!! Doubled in size quickly, and VERY lush and green. The others have hardly grown, and are more of a brownish-green. My tank is low tech, no CO2, low light. IMO Marimos are a beautiful addition to any aquaria and I would not go without them. So, to sum it up, give them another try, but be aware of how and where you buy them from:-D.....
