My bad, they come 5 to a pack! And here is what they look like....

....Perfect! Apparently they are Parrot toys. Just go to Ebay and do a
search for whirly balls.
========================
That isn't so cheap! Only a few balls for $1.99? Woman's hair rollers
are
cheaper at Wally-World. They're even cheaper at garage sales and flea
markets. :-)

You can buy an entire box of bioballs at any petshop for about $5. Why
anyone would want to use them for a garden pond is a mystery to me. I've
even removed them from my marine aquarium because they are a source of
unwanted nitrates. Better to have a natural biofilter that will absorb
these nutrients and that can be harvested, thus elminating those nutrients
from the pond altogether.
