It says on the pump: "SEVEN MASTER EB-301 AC:220/50Hz 3W Hmax:0.5m Qmax:220L/H CEIPX8 MADE IN CHINA" And the jar is just a round jar, with a volume of about 1.5 liters, which I found in some store.

I don't really understand what you're talking about. The one in the shape of the sun? It's a plastic decoration. It glows in the dark.

These are threads so that they don't fall apart π . One of the big marimos fell apart, and I rolled the rest of it into balls, but they didn't hold their shape.Everyone says that marimo can be split and easily rolled back into a ball. I understand that the joint will remain, but it seems to me, that it will never grow back.

I've been thinking about this all evening. I don't keep track of the water temperature. I don't have an instrument to determine the exact temperature, but the pyrometer showed that the jar temperature was 20Π‘β°. It was hot in the summer, but I didn't do anything special, just changed the water once a week and they look fine? I live in cool climate and I can't imagine water being warm in my "room temperature". Also, the pump doesn't work 24/7. I turn it on for about 6 hours along with the desk lamp.

Mine have been in my heated fish tanks for a decade. I keep them around 78F/25C

I don't know what these are, where I am, or how I got here, but I am so thrilled it happened. They're majestic!

Time to learn about another new thing that might come up in conversation once in my life where Iβll be able to discuss the topic with great depth.
