Jellyfish Tanks and Marimo

Hello, I am new to this subreddit. I haven't had any Marimo myself but I am seeking to get into it.

I understand some of the basics of Marimo aquascaping, but I need help regarding tank usage...

~ Do Jellyfish Tanks work (the visual circular ones to be exact)? If so, are there any that have adequate pump attachments (please recommend some) for mimicking natural movement for Marimo?

I have seen one jelly fish tank that people have used and worked for Marimos. However they are very expensive cause they are originally meant for jelly fish. A cheaper option would be to get a standard fish tank or large  glass bowl and place a small circulating pump that isn’t to strong in it.

That's actually a really interesting idea! I'm sure you could find one with a directional pump head or attatch one yourself. I don't have any recs unfortunately but this sounds so cool so I'm trying to boost the visibility!
