so far anyones marimo doing well after few months without tank setup?

my giants are getting less greener, parts already looks abit whitish under room light when you squeeze it dry, less noticeable in water. I don't have a tank so i put them in those rm5 plastic display casings from japanese shop, have a fan blowing but doesn't really cool much during afternoon, it's not in direct sunlight, i put ice cubes after work & use fluorescent desk lights for an hour. Change water every week and in between throw out some water for ice cubes. Squeeze them every week they will stink in 1st few squeeze.

i gave up putting salt as i don't see any improvements.

i also gave up giving spa treatment as i see one test unit has become much less greener after few weeks in the fridge. I torn it out the inside still dark green but outside mostly very light green/whitish. So i left them in public fish pond.

any advice as i've done most recommendations here & online. it seems bigger morimos get sick easier than small ones. i'm guessing the rest of the giants will probably end up in the pond at this rate...

ps some of my nano marimo are starting to become pacman also...

The rest i don't put in fridge also losing their greenest. i can't open the aircon when i'm not around don't wanna bring them to office.

Just added some salt to see but you guys mention a pinch of salt is very generic, like how many grams per litre of water?

HAHA ... duno worry if there is no yellow color on your marimos 

For me i everyday put my marimos in the fridge before i went to slp and bring them out in the morning ... own them about 1 month alrdy still very green and fresh 

SO TRUE!
i followed your advice and put them in fridge whenever i'm not around at home~
they come out looking so green!
now they are dark green

Can the marimo survive without co2 supply?
