#amazon frogbit

I love this red root floater. The pop of read is so astounding and the roots are short and thick. Speaking of roots, I did not anticipate how long the frogbits would get. I just pulled a few bunches and accidentally tore up the substrate because they’re burrowed in. I like the contrast frogbit has with all the other floating plants, so I’m trying to trim the roots on a few bunches and see how it does.

The amazon frogbit came!!! Already saw one snail, I think a ramshorn or a tiny mystery snail I’ll probably keep in the used water cube (for watering my houseplants) until I can tell for sure. As always, free duckweed is tremendously appreciated 🙌🏼❤️

How do y'all keep your Amazon frogbit away from the filter??

Or is the goal to just have it propagate fast enough to continually replace the ones that get splashed & die?

Frogbit

Does anyone have any extra frogbit they would be willing to give/sell/trade with me? (It's fine if there's duckweed too) I just wasted a ton of money and I'm kinda pissed right now. I ordered like 40 plants, and they came a day early, so I wasn't home when they arrived and I passed the 2 hours from delivery time window to report problems. I opened them and they looked pretty decent. I opened the bag and all but about 10 were just random leaves with no stem, nothing. Aside from that, they were covered in algae/slime, had random ass dead java fern leaves in them, as well as a bunch of duck weed and, of course, several snails. I'm trying to salvage as much as I can, but I don't have even close to as many plants as I'd like. If anyone has some extra, I don't really have much more to spend on plants but I can pay shipping, and I will be willing to do art for you for free. Or ship you some of my fish stickers for free. If you don't want the art, I may be able to pay, but I really can't afford much right now as all my spending money is really going toward moving to college. (Gotta make sure the fishy makes it up there safely) Thank you!

After many years of having this plant, I have some amazon frogbit that has grown to it’s mature form. It’s unlikely that it will flower though.

Selling Frogbit

I’m selling one or two quart sized baggies of Amazon frogbit for $10 each, including shipping.  If anyone is interested, please feel free to message me.  

I really need to get some out of my tank soon.  It took over both tanks without me realizing...
