Great addition to shrimp or nano tank - They are tiny, but will grow.
Slowly looking like Moss Balls now.. Originally looked like small balls of green fluff, but since being in my shrimp tank have started to look like tiny versions of my large moss ball. Shrimp are always eating on them, (along with the Alder Cones). Will take a while to grow to a reasonable size, but if you want big then don't buy these buy the bigger ones.They are a little smaller than a marble, so would be lost in a large aquarium, great though for the shrimp or nano tank.

6 little balls about the size of a 5pence. Adorable.
Adorable "Moss" Algae balls, popular in Japan. 6 little balls about the size of a 5pence.I bought this for my 1 (imperial) gallon tank to aid in a proper eco system, I have stuck them around the intake of the filter to stop small fish being sucked in. Look great and serve the purpose. Hoping to propagate them when they get bigger.

BIG!
I ordered these from the seller Aquarium Plants Storefront and not Marimo Pet Store so would just like to make that clear first off. These were delivered next day at only a cost of 35p EXCELLENT! The size I should also mention is not as other buyers have said unless they got theirs from Marimo as all 6 of mine are NOT small. lol. They are all between 1" & 2" in diameter. Yes I did say INCHES and all healthy and still moist. Well deserved 5 STARS!

Only sent 4 and they're way bigger than shown
I wanted these ones specifically because I wanted small ones, for a small tank with tiny shrimpBut they actually came the size of ping pong balls, and they only sent 4So they're too big for what I had in mind, and they'll only get bigger...

Good little moss balls for aquariums and homes.
Got 6 of these little balls. 1 unfortunately kind of turned into a carpet, but it was still fine and I managed to roll it back into a ball. What can I say? These balls are great, they were far bigger than I actually expected and have been a great addition to my Tropical tank. I've only just put fish in the tank, so I can't say if its affecting them negatively, but so far - so good.

Additional interest in tank,
Interesting addition to the tropical Tank, Shrimp and fish will feed off the Micro-organisms that grow on them.
