A marimo is a rare growth form of the species where the algae grow into large green balls with a velvety appearance. Colonies of such balls are only known to found in Japan, Iceland, Scotland and Estonia.


Marimo is a gift from natures, due to the growth rate of itself is only about 5mm-1cm per year, the size become one of the factor determine its value.  Due to its rareness and uniqueness, Marimo have become popular among the aquarium hobbyist because its very suitable to keep in aquarium, and low maintenance.
