Description: Marimo Moss Balls is
a type of algae that comes from Lake Akan in
Japan. It's just known as Marimo in Japan, it gets it's name from Mari
meaning "ball" in Japanese and "mo" refers to algae in Japanese. The
Algae grows in a weird pattern which causes it to become tangled
up, which ten creates a ball. The tangling starts from the inside and
grows out. Marimo balls are considered a treasure in Japan and that's
why it's featured on many items in Japan Great for getting rid of pond algae and
algae in the aquarium because the moss ball out competes the algae for
nutrients since they have similar diets. Also in your pond drop a
couple in and let them remove nutrients that cause that ugly green
water. This will also let you get rid of algae the natural way. Shrimps and Thai Micro Crabs Love them as they hold a good food source for them.
