Does anyone know where in Australia I would be able to find these? Is there an Australian equivalent? Also: Appologies to the mods who will see this. I know its in the wrong section...thing is I dont know which section: Planted aquaria or classifieds or here?

Anyway, they're actually a form of algae themselves, which is why they can suck up nutrients away from other forms of algae. They form because they clump together and the current rolls them up into balls. To make things short, once you buy them you'd have to roll them up yourself.:%) Kind of cool, but I've heard less about them than Pothos.:%) -------------------------------------------- The aquarist is one who must learn the ways of the biologist, the chemist, and the veterinarian.
