"Arrived in great condition. I ordered the large duckweed and lesser duckweed." - Samantha Via Etsy Lesser or "Common" Duckweed is a super fast-growing floater, common worldwide. "Lemna spp" is the the smallest flowering plant in the world, and quickly grows to cover the surface of any body of water it is put in. There have been studies on this extraordinary plant to provide a human source of vegetable protein, and is already grown for food in some parts of the world. It is also a great food source for many animals in the wild, especially things like turtles and water fowl. Excellent nutrient uptake to keep your nitrates down as well! 2oz portion is roughly a small condiment cup size. Care Parameters: Lower light requirements 45-85 degrees Fahrenheit No special tank requirements Food source for reptiles Fast growth, low maintenance As I like to keep real ecosystems in my aquariums, there's always the possibility of harmless snail or dwarf shrimp hitchhikers!
