As the title says, i popped into a LFS that i don't normally use and found these little beauties.

I picked the greenest ones as i guess there the best!!!

Love the way each morning they seemed to have moved!

Those are great! How do they stay down? I mean what is the moss/algae growing on? Do you have to tie them or weight them? Or do they just sink on their own? * wants some *

They sink on their own

If you have enough light in your tank, they float to the surface in the day, and sink at night. :lol:
 
Arrgh! I want some! A couple of those would look great in the 15gal I'm setting up :hyper: Isn't that some sort of algae though? I saw some on Ebay, and it said they were a type of slow growing algae, and not actually moss at all. Is that true?

yeah it's an algae, but it doesn't spread. :good:
 
i love moss balls i have one in all of my tanks even my cold water - they don't looks quite as stylish as yours tho!!

as far as i know moss balls eat bad thinks in your tank - they absorb ammonia and nirtite and break it down - stop me if im wrong - just what i heard..

beautiful and useful!
 
I love them. They add a look to the tank that it didn't have before. Something different to look at.

My fish love the way they trap food so there is always something to eat!

Popping back to the shop today, must try to aviod buying more!!

They are like that, otherwise you need brighter lighting.
