The floating moss ball is a buoyant spherical ball of aquarium moss designed to float at the water surface, creating an unusual and natural planted feature that requires no substrate, no attachment, and no positioning — it simply floats where gentle water movement takes it, drifting naturally and providing a living green sphere at the surface level of the aquarium.As a floating plant the moss ball grows in low light without CO2 injection. It is easy to maintain — trim with scissors if it grows too large, and squeeze gently to remove excess water if needed. Shrimp and fry use the underside and the surface of the ball for shelter and grazing. The floating position gives it good light exposure and gas exchange at the surface.Simply place in the aquarium and it floats immediately — no substrate, no planting, no attachment needed. It can be left to drift freely with water movement or guided to a preferred area of the tank. Suited to aquariums of 20 litres and above and effective as a natural, self-maintaining floating feature for shrimp tanks and community aquariums.
