Create a natural floating canopy with this mixed portion of Lemna minor (Duckweed) and Limnobium laevigatum (Amazon Frogbit). These popular floating plants help soften aquarium lighting, provide cover for fish and shrimp, and create a more natural environment within the aquarium.
The combination of tiny Duckweed and larger Frogbit creates a layered floating effect that adds visual interest while helping absorb excess nutrients from the water column. Floating plants are especially popular in shrimp tanks, betta aquariums, and nature-style planted tanks.
