Duckweed is a hardy, fast-growing floating aquarium plant that provides natural cover and enrichment for fish. Many species enjoy swimming beneath the floating mat and may even graze on the leaves.

Thanks to its rapid growth, duckweed is highly effective at absorbing excess nitrates from the water column and can help naturally outcompete algae, making it a beneficial addition to many aquarium setups.
