Thanks for the tips, everyone. I'll try the gentle squeeze trick during water changes and keep the temp in check.

I just got my first marimo moss ball and I'm not sure how to care for it. What's the best way to keep it healthy and growing? My tank is a 10 gallon with low light and no CO2.

I've been reading up on testing a Betta's temperament to see if they're community fish material, and I have to say, I was taken aback by the results.
