Marimo needs little maintenance. They can be kept in a jar or an aquarium. They do nothing and have to be squeezed and rolled around the jar every now and then to help retain the round shape.

My new pet algae in its habitat.

A local aquarium shop happened to have one. I got it for half price, because it has a couple of brown spots underneath from sitting on its one side in the aquarium. I hope to rehabilitate it. I don't know much about caring for marimo so we'll see what happens to it. Maybe it dies!
