About this product
Floating plants work the top of the tank that rooted plants cannot reach. This mix of frogbit, dwarf water lettuce, and a little duckweed shades the surface, calms skittish fish, and exports nutrients fast through trailing roots that fry and shrimp love.
Surface cover is especially valuable in a guppy or feeder tank — it diffuses harsh light, reduces stress, and gives fry a ceiling to hide under. A little goes a long way, so start light and let it fill in.
