No it isn't the one I whatsapp you I captured via my iPhone^^ (faster to send to you)
the one I posted here are using Pocket Cam
Now my Marimos are lamp-bathing hehehehe~ I turned off the light at night..

anyway, about the Carbon Active, do I need to keep using Carbon Active? or just for a month only?
Some people says it's not good to keep using Carbon Active because it will clears all the bacterias.
Because some bacterias are needed for the better Aquarium condition?

hahahah, that's coral stone actually..
I haven't put the gravel in... because I;m not sure if the gravels cleaned already/not..planing to wash it it again tomorrow
Hmm.. I don't know what is it made from..but I think it's not plastic, it's kinda like Marbles.. (heavy, had the same sound when it bumped to each other)

uhuo uhuo...sometimes.. no offense..100++ page isn't so easy to read just in one day >.<" takes a lot of time for us the newbies..no offense tho..
really appreciate for those who replying us even with short answer <3. but if don't mind if people tell me to read page 1 because that's the most important thing in this topic . but In the end I read everypage for days..XDD

anyway..for the Club..honestly I found it before Leeyung's store.. and yes I tried to contact the owner.. (I didn't know Leeyung at that time... well for me personaly, I far prefer buy at Leeyung^^.

Because in "that" club, they gave unreasonable prices (with grade A and B reason).
there are no grade A and B Marimos... why? because the pictures show that Grade A have a short fur Hair, while B is long already. And I curious, so I asked them how to maintain the Marimos to keep become short fur like Grade A? The answer is, they can't control the fur, when Marimos Grow, means the Fur grows along too.. so the conclusion is in the end, All Marimos will become the Grade B Marimo (which is that is the normal Marimo be) .

2nd, well, of course their Treatment products don't give any further biologic explanation. It only says "nutritient" and else.. but for me I need more biologic explanation about the product before I buy. And they didn't give me the best answer to think Logicaly.

3rd, dunno, when you want to buy some products, of course the prices and the details must be provided too.. but It doesn't, kinda tired when you must ask alot of questions for that and the answer sometimes too short.

just curious.. O_o where is the other place which discussed it? *if I may know?

Added on August 25, 2012, 10:34 amwoah, I just research it, they said it kinda like Plankton, called Copepods. White small, thin like snow..and walking around the aquarium glasses +_+.
At first I kinda freak out, and so afraid that they might hurt marimos.. but after I know about it, I'm so relieved..hehehe.. they are completely harmless to your fish, and are actually a major source of food in natural freshwater environment but I don't have fishes in my aquarium! so I have to clean my aquarium XD. Wow.. how is ur little Snails now..? XD did they grow big?

---

Added on August 25, 2012, 10:41 amwell, at first I curious about this too..
I ever read some people put their marimo in the different way of growing..
one the person use high-light and the other low-light..
both the green are fresh..dunno..XDD I think it's depend on their environment.. some marimos would be living in the more light environment and some others don't.. I think what's made them different is because their adaptation in their own environment..basicaly they are the same species..
it's just they have their own uniqueness based on their environment places to grow.. so thats why Japanese always say "Marimo" is only in Japan..I agree because they have their own environtment which in other countries are different.. . In other places it often called "Moss Ball" only (based on what I read and research)

well so sorry and tell me if I'm wrong.. it's just my humble opinion after I read alot of articles about Marimos... thank you

Attached thumbnail(s)

move them to small bottle after putting in Canister Filter in the Aquarium
Somehow, the Water inside the Aquarium can't clean clearly.. maybe because of the Gravels? it still looks dusty even I washed the gravel many times+_+

and..I kinda freak out when some furs of marimo released from it, the filter quickly absorb the fur +_+" hahaha.. (can marimo become smaller because of the filter's strainer?)hahaha.. +_+

Added on September 1, 2012, 3:47 pmI notice there are some hair fillamens at Super Giant marimo that brown/white/yellow colorish(but really little). All at the edge of the hair..... need advice!
1. should I cut the edges a little?
2. should I rub them with water salt?
3. should I do nothing and let the greenish colour back naturaly?

thank you..^^

I heard that when there are green colour on marimo, means the marimo still can be saved... washed them and rubbed them with salt water..
then put them in fridge with the amount salt 5% of the water volume!

put them in fridge at night..
give them light in the morning

@ck.chunkeat : hmm air con temperature around 19 to up..
but In fridge the temperature can reach 16 celcious..so that's better

just sharing my Video..
actually there is 5 Super Giants in the house..but the aquarium is so small..
so I put another in the Jug and in the Bottle...
3 of them are mine, the other two are my cousins^^
I was trying this aquarium setting.. somehow the hair fillaments keep release from marimo;s body +_+
so I put Gauze? (type of fabric that have big pores?) so the hairs don't go into the strainer..
well, then I put them together, and become reaally small marimo...kwkww..





somehow my video can't appear =_=?

Added on September 2, 2012, 10:20 amwell..
how long do you put sick marimo in the fridge? (24-48) hours
do the marimo need to be given light after that? then put it back in the fridge?
do the water need to be changed everyday for sick marimo?

thank you before.. been read but I got no clue about the detail handling process.. >.<

do anyone ever experience Marimo with some white hair? O_O"
why is that? should I trim? or it will goes to green again as time goes by?


anyway... made new baby marimo^^ the hair fillaments grow strong and start to hook each other in 4 days

hello, I already include the Pic there..

well, about the salt, 500 Gram surely Right

I was use 200 ML and the salt is 10 gram 1ml=1gram



This post has been edited by Azure_Fox: Sep 14 2012, 04:39 PM

O_o"
Well.. (I usually Baking Cakes XD and the conversion of 1 ml = 1 gram)
so means the gram is the same as volume (ML) too^^

So half a kilo of salt that u dumped is the right amount, I think

*me too* curious XD

moving to bigger aquarium.....(well my smaller aquarium isn't big enough for this fellas )

a little worried about my 2 super giants here.. the middle and the right one..their colours seems different than others..and their texture different too..
hopefully they're not sick.. (in the metabolism cycle phase?)
