Duckweed?
- Thread starter kavin2845

There is a place in Milford, NH that carrys duckweed. If you just wait a few weeks look around in the local ponds, usually there is a ton of it. I use a net scoop out a lot of it then wash it out in 5 gallon buckets. A few washes usually cleans out most of the muck. Be aware of any "hitch hikers" that be introduced, most of the time the are mostly harmless.
i was looking at getting some duckweed also would it be safe for an aquarium if i got it from a swamp? i would be putting it with two festaes and a green terror
I wouldnt from a swamp. You could bring in anything with it and it would be loaded with nitrates.All my cics eat it. Or put a thimble full of washed duckweed in a bowl outside and in a couple of weeks it wil be covered with new plantlets.

This is the best advice. If you take a little and grow it yourself you know it's coming from a clean environment before putting it in your tank.
My pond is man made and is really clear and is filtered? But ill still grow it just to be safe!
