Very uniform ball, solidly packed.

"Very uniform ball, solidly packed. Can’t wait to use it with the absolutely LOVELY Java Moss I purchased from Buce…who has never disappointed me with any of my purchases over the years."

— Kimi S. (5/5)

Good product!

"This is my first time using wabi-kusa in an aquascape. I tried making my own but it ended up just clouding up my water, so I gave in and got two of these. The packaging was well made, felt very upscale and clean. I have yet to use the product (still waiting on some plants) but the material selection is superb!"
