Giant Duckweed 2oz Portion

"Love this shop! Everything shipped so fast and packaging was super eco friendly! A+ from me!"

-Kyler T. Via Etsy

Giant duckweed is a larger, more manageable version of the regular duckweed you see sneaking everywhere in the aquarium trade. This type has beautiful purple undersides as well!

"Spirodela polyrhiza" is the largest type of duckweed (although tiny at 1cm), and is native to Florida. Ours is homegrown in Kansas!

 One portion is equal to 10+ plantlets, many already budding! This is plenty to start a 10 gallon tank.

Care Parameters:

• Lower light requirements
• 45-85 degrees Fahrenheit
• No special tank requirements
• Food source for reptiles
• Fast growth, low maintenance
  

2oz portion is roughly a small condiment cup size.

As I like to keep real ecosystems in my aquariums, there’s always a chance of harmless hitchhikers like snails or dwarf shrimp tagging along with your plants!

I personally keep several beneficial snail species in my tanks, including Colorful Ramshorns, Bronze Bladder and Pond Snails, Mini Rams, and Malaysian Trumpet Snails. These snails stay relatively small, help clean the aquarium, and do not eat healthy plants or cause harm. However, if you’d rather avoid any hitchhikers, I highly recommend checking out our blog on how to safely disinfect aquarium plants before adding them to your tank:

All plants are freshly snipped or harvested and packed right before shipment. I take great care in preparing every order and use methods that have consistently produced the best results over many years in the hobby. A lot of love goes into every package, so please don’t leave your plants sitting in a hot mailbox for too long 🙏

Thank you for looking, aqua friends! 💚
