moss ball bonsai tree aquarium Marimo Moss BallMarimo Moss Balls (Aegagropila linnaei Cladophora aegagropila) arent actually moss! Theyre a rare, slow growing algae that naturally forms into soft, velvety green spheres. In the wild, Marimo grows at the bottom of lakes in Japan, where water currents tumble the algae into its signature moss ball shape. The name Marimo directly translates to seaweed ball in Japanese, and its arguably the only algae species welcomed openly in freshwater aquariums.

Marimo Moss Balls (Aegagropila linnaei / Cladophora aegagropila) aren’t actually moss! They’re a rare, slow-growing algae that naturally forms into soft, velvety green spheres. In the wild, Marimo grows at the bottom of lakes in Japan, where water currents tumble the algae into its signature moss ball shape. The name Marimo directly translates to “seaweed ball” in Japanese, and it’s arguably the only algae species welcomed openly in freshwater aquariums.

Marimo Balls are very much alive and make a unique, moss-like addition to any freshwater aquarium or planted tank. They’re often used in low light tanks for greening, an aquascaping technique where moss is attached to driftwood and rocks to create an aged, natural look. Simply pull the ball apart and gently wedge into cracks or attach with a very small amount of adhesive. Marimo Balls are also decorative on their own and are often kept in glass jars or similar containers. They’re great for betta fish tanks, shrimp setups, and more. If your Marimo floats, it likely has air trapped inside. Squeeze it gently to release and drop it back in!

How to care for a Marimo Ball

Marimo Balls require very little maintenance. They prefer cooler water temperatures below 76°F. In still water or under stronger lighting, you may need to manually rotate them occasionally to ensure all sides receive light. Otherwise, they’re fine in low light, tolerate a wide range of water parameters, and can even survive in slightly brackish water. Their hardy nature and minimal care makes them a top beginner “aquarium plant”!

Meh.
Style: Wild Mint 2 Pack
I am almost through with one tube and it seems fine. Doesn't seem to clean or whiten any better than regular store toothpastes.

Incredible battery life, effective cleaning, a whole years worth of brush heads!
This is the mac-daddy of electric toothbrushes! I would even use it as an adult, it's that good! The designers of the Vekkia Sonic Rechargeable Kids Electric Toothbrush put a lot of thought into this toothbrush and have knocked it out of the park. The things I like most are: * The battery life. The battery life on this toothbrush is unheard of! It's been a over a month and we have charged it once. This is the perfect feature to take this toothbrush while traveling! * The timer. The timer makes it so that my kids know to keep going until the timer goes off, and I don't have to keep saying, "Not yet, get every tooth, you haven't brushed long enough." * The adjustable cleaning modes. One of my kids is sensitive to the vibration on their teeth, so they won't use electric toothbrushes; however, with multiple settings, it is gentle enough to not bother them, and adjustable to a stronger vibration for my kids who don't mind it. And I have peace of mind that no matter which one they choose, their teeth are being cleaned properly. * The size of the heads. The heads are small enough that the toothbrush fits comfortably between their gums/teeth and their cheek. Some of them are so big that it is uncomfortable and hard to use, especially on the back teeth. This toothbrush is designed for an effective and comfortable brushing experience. * This toothbrush is durable. Unfortunately our toothbrush has been dropped onto our tile, and knocked off the counter once. Fortunately, this toothbrush was designed for kids, understanding accidents can happen, and it endured all of that without any cracks, dings, or signs of a fall. * The price. Dentists recommend replacing your toothbrush every three months. While $15.99 (at the time of this review) may initially seem high, you are getting four brush heads. This is an entire year's worth for less than $16. What I would change: * I would love for VEKKIA to make electric toothbrushes for adults with these same features so my spouse doens't wonder why I am using a dinosaur toothbrush haha!
