Floating Plants

[Pipe layer]

I am looking for a floating plant that will not spread as prolifically as say duckweed.

I have a 180, not planted (a few anubas and java fern) and am looking for a larger plant that is a true floater for my arowana to hang out under.

Light is 4x t5 (medium light i would say) no co2.

Something like a lily but as a true floating plant?

Any suggestions?

Red root floater (Phyllanthus fluitans), frogbit, and riccia come to mind. Water sprite and dwarf water lettuce would also work, but do grow quickly.

Thanks. I think frogbit or water lettuce might be the better options. Still fairly fast growing but large enough to remove easily.

I'm a fan of both frogbit, and dwarf water lettuce... Either one is a good choice!!!!
