hahaha, nvm, no experience needed to take care of marimo, just change water once per two weeks then will do already, Marimo a bit different with other moss such as Java Moss as Marimo is a kind of more "Solid" and somehow they look more CUTE LoL

1 giant surrounded by few nano is a good idea but if 1 nano surrounded by few giant it would be a pity for the nano haha
anyway we see how then, if you also interested we get together la and ship it to ur place then I go take from u lol I very scare if need to ship something to my house

lemme consider and perhaps take a stroll in daiso see got any nice bottles i interested in before calculate how many marimo can keep.... i google some pics and saw some get those bottle that have keychain/hp straps to carry them around....

Dad took my camera jor....So i took the pic by using my phone hope you all can see it.
1st Pic : You can see the size between giant and nano
2nd Pic : Giant and nano from my another tank
3rd Pic : That how i place them

Sorry for my noob skill Hope you all dont mind

oh cute marimos. looks very healthy

eh bro, ur nano seems like grow bigger d, I remember the day I shipped out to you, no so large size one eh~

received mine....the nano, masuk bottle, regretted cos i sumbat that fella in, now cant come out jor T_T

haha, no worries, this is the common issue from my buyer, there are 3 ways to get the marimo out, 1st fill it full of water then hardly shake downward to make the fella out, 2nd, use cotton wool to absorb as much as possible the water and the marimo will shrink in size when dry up, then you can easily take it out, 3rd way is the easiest and fastest way, break the bottle, since it is free

can cucuk marimo or not??

if dead means change colour right???

i can see my big marimo its breathing...^^





p/s : no bottles yet, cos working till 10pm, no time go n buy yet..when got free time, then go buy..now inside tupperware ^^

izzit? i see it everyday cant really realize the changes of the size

it will change to brownish/blackish if the marimo dead, btw why u wan to cucuk the marimo? BBQ? nice photos! many oxygen bubbles producing by the marimo! hahahaa

Means marimo can actually perform photosynthesis using our fluorescent light tubes? Is it scientifically possible since plants cant do photosynthesis if kept indoors?

oh yeah, wanted to bbq to makan as a VEGETABLE ...joking only!

use toothpick to cucuk it out from the tiny bottle

in fact not only marimo will perform photosynthesis via fluorescent light All plants will do! Photosynthesis uses the energy from light (scientifically named as Photon) and carbon dioxide to produce the plant's fruit + waste (in the form of oxygen)

my marimo not floating geh

When cleaning, gently squeeze out the dirty water and slowly roll it a little between your palm. Then it'll float when you put it back into the water.

then how come cant keep live plants indoors 1? sry not familiar with plant stuffs....

you can put live plants indoors but it is not recommended this is because the photosynthesis rate for plant is pretty low with fluorescent as light source and therefore the plants will consume the oxygen in ur indoor area (example ur living room) rather than performing photosynthesis effectively, but for marimos, they are different with grounded plant as the demand of light source to perform photosynthesis is very low. Did I clear your doubt or increase? LoL

hmm ive been wondering ah.
would normal pipe water affect the growth?

I dont think this will affect you are using normal pipe water to siram your plant as well right? haha we dont need any anti chlorine for the water as the chlorine only kill fish but not aquatic plant
