Hi, may i know which clamping lamps are NON-UV?? recommended for marimo tank..

just buy normal lamp. Reading lamps or usb lamp.
Those lamp is for us to view only. Any lamp

will aquazonic t5 (16Wx2) 220-240v 50HZ, kill marimos???

it is not floating even i squeeze the water out from the marimo...

Hie Folks,

Here's my tank & a closer look at my adorable Jumbos! Sometimes, if i off the lighting--the marimos look super green & healthy. but when i turn it on, can see the left jumbo is a bit yellowish green. It's pretty hard to tell if they r doing ok or not coz your eyes can deceive you sometimes depending on the lighting. Sometimes it gets me confuzzled but at the end of the day, i think i'm thinking too much. Oh well. Cheers to all marimo owners! Let's strive to keep Japan's Special National Treasure alive

tank size? if normal planted tank i believe wont harm the marimos la...

tank size is about 40cm length. for now its kinda empty with marimos. ltr on will add more of the other plants with shrimps.

i think my marimo is becoming pacman...oh no...i don't know whether it will become carpet one or dividing into 2 marimos..

Herm, What is the water condition of your tank/bottle, you can refer to this post #866 regarding the causes of the pacman marimo.

Running Marimo..

I inspired by this cute scene, plan to make this similar once I got my order from LeeYung..

i think the water condition is ok...i use RO water, cuz if i use pipe water, bubble is formed on the aquarium surface. the aquarium size can fill up until 6.4litre..but i only use about 4litre...the average temperature is about 28-30C..i use JEBO 501 mini filer..
the marimo still in round shape...but the line of pacman getting bigger in the middle of marimo..

Nice tank with nice soil in fact the tank looks simple and nice with marimos only, maybe get some shrimp will look cool too

Try to change other water rather than RO water because RO water is too pure for marimo as it do not contain any minerals that needed by the marimos
