The legendary Aussimo Balls

[CNgo2006]

And now that it seems hard to get, come by, people want it more! that's the truth and just how it is!

[zuuutoootuuu]

looks awesome, I wonder why they haven't gone back to the location or maybe they have and it's dried up

[fishmosy]

No-one knows where it was collected except the original seller, and he ain't talking......

field trip? ??????????????????/

[smicko]

I may know one location in the orara valley. Just getting there is impossible at the moment. As soon as I collect some I will send some to fishmosy for id if thats ok. Or drop some off on my way home. How much is needed for a positive id as I have a couple of 1-2cm pieces here. I sorta hope its not ausimo as I thought it may have been a slow growing hair algae and killed most of it off. But if it is I can collect some for propagation as soon as the rain stops and rivers drop. Where I collect from has been in severe flood 3 times in the last 6 weeks so it may be a month or so.

Thanks smicko, sound great. Queenslanders have all the fun !

Not really bb. The orara valley is near coffs harbour nsw. But it is awesome going on holidays and having no phone reception in the middle of nowhere.

Cheers mick

Oooooooo I wanna go!

[Squiggle]

I would totally be up for a moss collecting trip :encouragement:

[planted]

iv'e got 4-5 of these, but i have also had one in a tank with no lighting for approx 6mths and it still looks the same.

no growth from the others in my planted tank either in the 2-3 years iv'e had them.

will post some macro pics soon, to me they don't look real...

[Aquathumb]

I'm always up for a collecting trip too!

[Ziek]

Were these purchased on AL, from the original seller ?

[planted]

yep they were purchased from AL, the timing sounds about right.

cant remember the sellers name now.

if you do a search on AL for aussimo i believe the seller possibly could have been brendanheyu

I'm near Coffs, you can drop it off to me if you want. Alternatively you can just tell me where the location is ;)
