Description: Duckweed raised inside. No larvae or pond grossness in it. Overgrowth from my own aquariums. Duckweed (Lemna Minor) Lemna Minor, also known as duckweed aquatic plant, is a fast-growing, adaptable, hardy, and easy-going plant. Duckweed produces small and oval leaves measuring about 0.12 inches and we ship it in 2x 2oz containers. The light green leaves enhance the look of your tank as this clover-like botanical floats along in your aquarium. These floating pants produce root like structures that hang underneath the leaves. In good conditions, you can expect your duckweed aquatic plant to spread quickly — a small amount can cover the surface of an average aquarium in one week. Each floating leaf, through the process called vegetative reproduction, will produce more floating leaves. Because of its fast growth, duckweed is great for all types of aquariums, especially those with a heavy biological load. The plant will absorb any excess nutrients from the water column to help keep your tank free of algae. Many fish, and particularly Koi and goldfish, love to eat duckweed and others will appreciate the shade and cover it provides, making them feel secure. Aquatic turtles also devour it!! Maintenance & Care for Duckweed Aquatic Plants Your duckweed floating plant should be regularly thinned to remove excess material. Balance out the look of this plant with other floating plants like water lettuce or red root floater. Minimum Lighting Required: Low to Moderate Temperature Range: 41°F - 95°F Tank Placement: Floating Due to the large temperature range in which duckweed aquatic plants thrive, you can use it in tanks with varied water conditions.
