Yep, Duckweed's a nightmare if you're not careful. I'd second Salvinia or even Red Root Floaters if you want something prettier. My fry tank's got a mix of floaters and Java Moss, and the survival rate's way up.windrunner wrote: ↑Wed Sep 03, 2025 1:23 am Floating plants are a good call, but Duckweed can take over fast. I'd go with Salvinia instead. It's easier to manage and still gives fry cover. My 15 gallon has it, and the fry hang out in the roots all the time.
