Hey guys...just thought I'd share my 10 gallon tank with everyone . I had this laying around and I just figured I'd try to do something new.
So I got some black sand, some Marimo balls, and some Red Cherry Shrimp and set-up 2 sponge filters surrounded by a bit of Wllow Moss.

Its simple, but I am finding that it has become one of my favorite tanks I've set-up...and its just a lil 10 gallon .

nice little tank you put together. like the marimo balls.....

I love the Marimo balls!!!

Hey man I've got a 'little un' too.... lol
I have mine in the kitchen cycling away but mine is bigger than ur'sssssss. It's 15.5 gallons. lol
Thought I would set this up before I do my 'big un' and I am having a great time with it. All the guys have been giving me great advice on setting up a tank and the thread is growing....

Well done by the way..

I don't know if anyone is interested or not...but I'm selling the Marimo Balls. $6 for 1 ball shipped, plus $4 per extra ball.

Not the point of this thread...just thought I'd put that out there.

Good luck getting your "big un" set-up jamesmiller...hehe. I just got some rock for my "big un"...very happy with them.

What are Marimo Balls by the way biomedia stuff or something...?

Marimo Balls are usually referred to as a moss, but actually it is an algea that is native to japan. Really interesting lil things. They are the only algae like this, and they rise and fall in the water currents for photosynthesis.

They are also a "Japanese National Treasure" as of the 50s.

Anybody seen them in the UK or even better Scotland lol

I love that center piece in ur tank mate. That is stunning !!!!!
