I would never part with my balls. I love my balls too much to sell them to you. Sorry.

Don't worry though; I am sure somebody will sell you their balls.

When you do get ahold of somebody's balls, make sure you roll them around regularly to keep them round... You could flatten them out like I did to mine, but I'd only do that if you don't have any really pesky fish that would pick with the balls. My balls look better flat IMO. My wife liked my balls round though, but once you flatten them suckers out, there is just NO turning back.

And another thing,

LOL... Delta you love it when you can talk about your balls don't you!!! :) I knew you would comment!! You just can't not talk about your balls! I do want to flatten a couple of them out but I also want to keep a couple of the round, too. I have been following the many adventures of your balls!!!! ;)

Yes, java moss is relativly cheap. I am going to be needing it as well. I have a guy that I am getting it from though. I just need to find some marimo balls... I really wanted delta to come through for me since he has so many just lying around!! :)

Ok, great!!! Let me know. My lfs (not so L) told me that they would try to order them for me but it is such a hassle to find the time to get up there and I don't know if they would be good ones or not. They don't have that good of a plant section although the fish manager said he was going to try to step it up some.

I am not that kind of guy! I don't know you well enough to just hand you my balls. I like looking at and rolling my balls too much to part with them anyway...*BOUNCINGS Everybody comments on how unique my balls are whenever they come over to my house, and I wouldn't give that up for the world.

Oh yeah, Matt, I forgot to respond to that. I am not sure exactly which ones they are. They aren't the ones in the pet dept though. They were only 10 watts. I went to the bulb section and found these. They also aren't long and slender like the plant bulbs are. These are shorter, fat little bulbs. Iw asn't sure if they would fit buit when I brought them home there was plenty of room for them. They are 15 watt bulbs. Hold a sec and I will tell you the name of them, it is on here somewhere.

Thanks, Pure. I will keep checking to see if that guy has any. I have looked for them on aquabid before and never found any. Maybe he will have some after the first of the year.

lil tip: Do get them sent with what he calls insurance. BUT make sure you are home to get the package. It's registerd/certified (i forget) mail. They wouldn't even let my wife sign for it.

Ok, thanks. I have also found some on Ebay from a store that seems to be rather reputable. They are selling 2 for $5.75 with a flat combined shipping of $5.50. It would be great if I could get some of my other plants from there for free shipping basically.
