Need help making a custom xp-like orb

Hello, I need some help making a mana orb, not a mana bar overlay. I don't know of the write jave code, so if anyone can give an answer to my following questions without using custom jave code, I'd be really happy.

The thing is, I don't know what to make as the model of the entity, if I make a sphere that I scale down (idk how to scale down a model in mcreator without using Geckolib plugin --> "Entity Visual Scale" and if you want : "Bounding Box Scale" when making an animated entity in the "Visual and Sound" tab), or I need to make something like a particle... So this was the first thing, and the second is what kind of procedure can I make so that the orb (if it's actually possible to make one) acts the same as the vanilla xp orb : it gets closer to the player and gets quicker as it gets closer (I wouldn't care if the mana orb won't get quicker as it gets closer).
That's basically it.

Make an entity with a custom model that looks like a sphere.

So that it attacks players, but does not deal damage

Also make it disappear when the player is too close
