Description

Product Overview

Introducing a premium collection of 40 live Giant Duckweed (Spirodela polyrhiza) plants, expertly cultivated by InnoD for aquarium and pond enthusiasts seeking a natural, low‑maintenance green carpet. Each plant measures approximately 3 x 3 x 0.2 inches, offering a delicate yet resilient floating leaf that spreads quickly across the water surface. The vibrant green hue not only adds visual appeal but also performs essential ecological functions, such as oxygenation, nutrient absorption, and algae suppression. Designed for full‑sun exposure, these plants thrive under moderate watering regimes, making them adaptable to a variety of freshwater environments. The package includes a single count of 40 individual duckweed pieces, each ready to be introduced directly into your tank or pond without the need for additional preparation. With a lightweight design of just 1.34 ounces, the plants are easy to handle and distribute evenly, ensuring uniform coverage and optimal performance.

Usage

Giant Duckweed is ideal for both novice hobbyists and experienced aquarists who wish to create a thriving, balanced ecosystem. Simply open the package, disperse the duckweed onto the water surface, and allow the plants to float naturally. Over time, the duckweed will multiply, forming a dense mat that provides shelter for small fish, shrimp, and fry, while also serving as a natural filter that absorbs excess nutrients and reduces nitrate levels. This makes the product especially valuable for community tanks, planted aquariums, and outdoor ponds where water clarity and stability are paramount. The plants are compatible with a wide range of water parameters, tolerating temperatures from 68°F to 86°F (20°C‑30°C) and a pH range of 6.5‑8.0. For best results, maintain moderate lighting and avoid excessive water flow that could dislodge the delicate leaves. Regularly monitor the growth and trim excess duckweed if it begins to shade out other aquatic plants, ensuring a harmonious balance within the ecosystem.

FAQ

How often should I replace the duckweed?

Duckweed is a living plant that will naturally regenerate. Replace only if the plants become unhealthy or if you need to refresh the tank’s appearance. Typically, a full replacement is unnecessary within a year of proper care.

Can duckweed coexist with other live plants?

Yes, duckweed can coexist with submerged and emergent plants. However, because it can form a dense mat, you may need to thin it periodically to ensure adequate light reaches other plants.

Is duckweed safe for all fish species?

Duckweed is safe for most freshwater fish, including community species, tetras, guppies, and goldfish. It is especially beneficial for herbivorous fish and fry that enjoy grazing on soft plant material.

What lighting conditions are optimal?

Full‑sun exposure or bright artificial lighting (10‑12 lumens per liter) promotes healthy growth. Avoid extremely low light, which can slow multiplication and reduce the plant’s filtration efficiency.

How do I control excessive duckweed growth?

Regularly skim excess duckweed with a fine net or gently stir the water to disperse the mat. You can also introduce herbivorous fish such as Siamese algae eaters or snails that naturally consume duckweed.
