So I thought it would be cool to add some floating plants to my 55 gal. community, so I nabbed some duckweed from the LFS. This stuff grows and spreads like something from the Sci-Fi channel!
Anyway, what how has duckweed affected your tanks, meaning your other plant's growth? It seems to want to cover the entire water surface area. Do I need to start tossing some of this stuff?
thanks,
