Portion Size You will receive 15-20 plantlets. Description Giant Duckweed is an awesome floating plant. It propagates rapidly and is extremely easy, with nearly identical requireme nts to normal duckweed, and about 5-6 times its size. Giant Duckweed prefers a still surface to grow on. It acts as a great source of food for goldfish. I would highly recommend this if you have algae problems or high nitrates. Giant Duckweed floats at the surface, blocking out light, and will consume excess nutrients in the water. A shrimp favourite to graze on!
