[AquaticLife] Duckweed


Yep.they are called roots ;-) Get some angels (and a larger tank *grin*).they love it. I get duckweed during the spring and summer from a local landscaper, it grows like crazy in their displays. It lasts a couple of days before the angels(and other fish) eat it all up. It would be a good excuse to get a large tank and some beautiful angels hehehehe. I am sure any primarily vegetarian fish would also suffice.

I just took a look at the duckweed that I am plagued with. It looks like hair is growing from the bottom of it. I would have guessed it to be hair algae but it is floating on the top of the water right under the duckweed. I try to scoop as much of the duckweed as I can every PWC, but it just takes back over. This is in a 10 gallon planted tank. Does anybody know if duckweed produces hair-like stuff? It is not on the sides of the tank or on the gravel - it is also not on the hood. It appears to be attached to the duckweed.
