The Marimo ball has done some amazing things... Algae has stopped forming
on my tank.  Took a water sample in and had the pet shop do the
computerized analysis... no nitrites to feed the algae...  and the ball
looks like a little green tribble that occasionally will float when O2
builds up in it.  I find it in a different place in the tanke once a week
or so.
