When I first added riccia to my tank, it went in a million little bits. I thought, what a MESS! But the 'bits' grew and grew. Now I have these very cool floating islands. It does break apart easily, but if handled carefully the mats do stay intact.
All great plants! I don't feel as warm to the Duckweed as you but we all have different things that we like and work for us hey. All the rests are superb examples though and great for beginners and more experienced hobbyist too. Enjoyed your presentation. 👍
I've been really into floating plants this last year and this summer I've added some to my pond and they literally transformed it and looks so much better than last year when I had just the basic pond plants. I've transitioned to a rimless tank with no lid in my living room too with a new light and floating plants and that is like having a small pond indoors and viewing the tank more often from the top as well as the fish obviously, it's so cool and really changed things. The change up all started with floating plants and it's created a massive improvement to how I'm enjoying the hobby and viewing my tanks and fish.
Yes, Matt! I couldn’t agree more! It’s such an extra way to enjoy the hobby but I’m a real sucker for enjoying the hobby - looking down. Ponds and lowboys for me. Plus the floaters are like water art. ☺️
2 years later what are your feelings on the riccia fluitans? I haven’t seen it in your newer videos. You seem to use hornwort a lot. I want some surface coverage for nano fish and fry.
I love floating plants. I haven’t been able to find many in stock at most sites. I can’t wait until I stumble upon red root floaters in stock somewhere. It looks so lovely.
I have frogbit, savinia, and dwarf water lettuce. I have not entered the duck weed world in over two years and I am okay with that. lol I do intend to buy red root floaters next! Cool video!
My gouramis and I love the Amazon frog bit I put in my 45 gallon. I corralled them in a couple floating circles of air hose. They have the longest hanging roots that they like to sleep under. It is so prolific that I have to give it away all the rime.
I love them all especially last one!!! would love to find that here in Frisco,Texas. I do have alot and im trying to keep them alive. Would love the baby floating lettuce!Adorable!!!!!
Lol i found a local grower! Thank you! In addition i had a question...ofcourse you quarantine anything living going into an establish..ish tank. Does that include plants? Other then the typical washing and inspection....
You need to try Taiwan lily! I got mine from LRB Aquatics. I find it works best when you put a root in the substrate and when it reaches the surface it will explode with growth lol. It's good for all levels of the water column as it does not need to be planted at all. I also love hornwort but have never had success planting it
I love duckweed. I really don't know exactly how good it is, in the morning they look like mini Stalactites, b/c of all the algae clinging 2 the roots. Do they help rid the algae?
Hey how do you manage to not have a surface film with an aquarium that dosent have a lot of surface agitation? I have been struggling with this for months
Hi Joanna, I have soft water, I purchased from different vendors and they never made past two weeks. Good news is the frogbit is growing very well. As always looking forward to your next video.
Great wee vid. The only floaters I've kept until now are water lettuce and duckweed, but this has given me a couple I've never heard of to try out now too. Thanks Joanna, great stuff. I'm off to try and find these wee beauties for sale online now :)
hey i just got my first floating plant, red root floater. ive had my tank going for about 2 months with my betta and some other plants. 3 days after i added the floating plants i see worms like all over the tank. i first noticed them when i turned the light on and they were like everywhere the more i looked the more there were. after a while they hid. from what i found online its a detritus worm. i seen reviews on amazon about these plants being infested with all kinds of bugs. i bought mine from different site but i was emailing back and forth before i got my plants. i asked if they had any issues with bugs or worms or anything. they replied with their plants are basically sterile like a bandaid. so i think i can cross the new plant addition off the list for it but im still not too sure what else would cause the worms to appear all of a sudden? i dont over feed my fish and clean the tank/water change atleast once a week if not more
Love Salvinia, I put some in the pond a couple of weeks ago to see how it would do. Seems to be surviving at the moment, but I think it maybe a little to cold for it here 🍃🤓
I'm excited to have Dwarf Water Lettuce, Frogbit, 2 types of Salvinia, Duckweed, and Giant Duckweed out in my tub pond this year. I adore Red Root Floaters, but they're illegal in CA where I'm at, so I can't have them. Funnily enough, my tap water sucks, so I struggle to have floating plants do well. Even Duckweed struggles! Doing lots of fertilizer.
@@thesmallscape Yeah, my water sucks. Untreated with decholorinater it kills Ramshorn snails. Figured that out on accident. Found a neat little store with RRF in a beautifully shaped display tank. Wanted to buy them but he wouldn't sell them because they're illegal. I was so bummed... But gotta follow the law. 😊
Thank you for the info on water lettuce being invasive in the Midwest. I have some outside that I'll be pulling out of my outdoor containers. Thankfully, all of my outdoor ponds are screened, so birds won't be able to access the water lettuce. On the red root floaters, you need a very powerful light for them to be completely red. In my tanks, the red root floaters are green with red edges. Also, they need to be in a low flow tank. The plants will die otherwise...
You are welcome! Ya, low flow isn’t a problem for me and I don’t expect to keep the red color too long with my current lights but at some point here I will be giving the better lights a try. ☺️
Do you do anything different with light mounting when you use floating plants? I would think you might want to mount the light a little higher to light the entire surface of the tank, rather than mounting it just above the surface.
Good morning Joanna- I love floating plants and have them in my nano tanks. This is my first time seeing giant duckweed - and I will definitely have to find someone who sells it. Your plants look great- love the red root floaters- but haven’t found any in my stores so I guess I will have to look online for some. TYFS and have a great day!
These are some of my favorites as well! I've recently had an interesting experience with Amazon frogbit. Since adding it to my cherry shrimp tank it has grown like crazy and I have measured 0ppm nitrates for about 4 weeks straight. This tank used to have high nitrate issues because the shrimp and ramshorn snails breed so fast, now I'm worried my plants will end up nitrogen deficient!
Hi Amy, the larger the plant the easier it will be. Personally I find Amazon frogbit and dwarf water lettuce the easiest to keep under control but that is only by removing a majority of it regularly. Dwarf umbulia is another plant that is pretty to just leave floating and trim when needed. 😊
I'm going to try to make aquashella 1 day, was thinking Sunday . I heard it is less crowded, when is your talk? Would like to meet my favorite you tubers
What?! Woohoo! It would be great to meet you! Yes, Sundays are typically less crowded. Jason doesn’t know when he’s speaking yet but in Florida it was Sunday 🙂
I wish you luck with red root floater. It's not as easy to grow as some of your other selections. I've been growing this plant for a little while now and what I've learned is it doesn't seem to do so well in hard water. I had some in a few of my tanks that ended up dying because my water is very hard with a ph between 8 and 8.4. I want able to get it to grow well until I started using remineralized RO water. My water is still harder at 7.5, but that seems to be the sweet spot. With that, you may want to also pay attention to the way it grows and use some easy green fertilizer or something if you notice holes in the leaves or it just starts slowing down on growth and dying back. I don't know everything. I am just telling you based on my perspective on what has worked for me. Once you and Jason start using RO water, this plant should do well for you.
@@thesmallscape you will love the plant. What I love about it other then the red roots are the billowy red and green leaves that make a canopy over the water. It also grows these little delicate white flowers on top.
Whats the best floating plant for an aquarium with top water agitation ? Its a pleco tank with wood. Something that doesnt need a lot of care other than thinning down. I dont care of the plecos eat it.
I had trouble with hornwort accidentally trapping my guppies and BN Pleco juveniles, and I lost them 😢 SO, I switched to Brazilian Pennywort and the fish love it and it looks great 👍
Red root floaters are not beginner friendly... they dying on me as if they are suicide bombers... First set drowned under the filter... second set us dying for dome reason... I turned off the air pump today to reduce the glow even more.... next u would have to turn off the filter... but if that's what it takes... then can't have it in my aquarium... I mean fish need minimum surface agitation for survival right?
A beautiful video, I'm Alex, I have a Hispanic bean aquarium channel and I would love to use some of your images in a video of aquatic plants that I am going to make. Of course your name would always be at the top of the screen and also in the comments I would put a link to your channel. All this only if you give me your approval. Thank you for sharing and making this hobby that is aquarium growing bigger.
Madame Smallscape, another informative vid; always remember a couple o quick slaps on top of the Prof.'s head it will glow cherry for a minute. I would never promote violence...unless warranted. Seriously thank you! Did you know? Water lettuce is banned in SC so thanks a lot now I am gonna go research the subject. Thank you again.
I got duckweed all of a sudden and have no freaking clue how that happened. All the fish orders I made didn’t have anything green in it. Oh well, not much I can do about it.
I have tons and never bought any. I noticed I got a couple bits of it with a plant order, and was like, 'Oh, cool'. I'm still not in the 'Hate Duckweed' club, but I can see why some aquarists despise the stuff.
What a great video Joanna! I’m kicking myself, I was considering frogbit last year at my local LFS and passed on it. Whenever I go back they don’t have it in stock. 🤦🏻♀️ Now after your video there are so many more I’d like to try too! All of them really. 😁🌱🤩🍃😁 Enjoy your day! 😊
Long day at different doctors last one a young man with more metal in his face then my truck grill,mohawk and a ton of tattoos held the door open for me. I thought he was a nice jester!

Love the contrast of the fuzzy minty water lettuce next to the darker smoother frog bit. Very interesting 🧐. Thanks Joanna!
I know, right, Wendi! Each so pretty in its own right and then together as well. 😃

Isn’t that funny?! Whew!! I just love it when these plants produce so quickly! 🌱💚🌿
I love floating plants! And now I must check out this Ricca! I'd never seen that before! Thanks for the tips and ideas!
Isn’t it BEAUTIFUL?! ☺️☺️
Today must be my day! I just typed in the search and you just uploaded this! Looking to try some new floaters
Woohoo!! Thanks for stopping by, Kendra! ☺️
Very cool Joanna. I love those red ones the best. Thank you. Another great video with awesome info.
Thanks Bonnie. I just love the red ones too - I gotta get some better lights for them. ☺️
I love water lettuce. The contrast of the fuzzy minty leaves against the smaller darker frog bit is very interesting 🧐. Thanks for sharing!
Oh yes, couldn’t agree more! 🌱☺️🌿
Awesome video! Something about floating plants is just so much fun, and like free filtration...
Just told over on my day off and saw this wonderful video pop up. I'm gonna have to try and find some riccia now. It's pretty.
Oh yay! Thank you for spending a few minutes of your day off here! Enjoy your day!!! ☺️☺️☺️
Thank you for the video! Will floating plants do well in tanks with lids and LED lights? My LFS has some red root floaters that I'd like to try.
All great plants!
I don't feel as warm to the Duckweed as you but we all have different things that we like and work for us hey. All the rests are superb examples though and great for beginners and more experienced hobbyist too. Enjoyed your presentation. 👍

Anyone recommend where to buy these floaters?
I just planted my first tank and want to include to my cycle.
Thank you for always sharing!!
You’re welcome! 😊 I usually get at swaps but Etsy and EBay have a bunch of sellers!
The red root floaters look lovely. Right now I'm floating water sprite for my betta and he loves it.
Great video. I am also a big fan of floating plants.
Are you? Ya. Can’t go wrong. ☺️
I love floating plants. I haven’t been able to find many in stock at most sites. I can’t wait until I stumble upon red root floaters in stock somewhere. It looks so lovely.
I buy them on Amazon.

Oh yes! It’s on my list!! I think I need to reach out to Lucas, thanks for the tip! ☺️☺️☺️
Duckweed is a great food for Goldfish. Love It
Great collection never the least
I love duckweed. I really don't know exactly how good it is, in the morning they look like mini Stalactites, b/c of all the algae clinging 2 the roots. Do they help rid the algae?

Do you know if the giant duckweed will multiply as fast as the regular size? I'm thinking I'd really like some!
It grows fast if you let it, but it's much easier to manage/remove.than normal duckweed. Give it a try!
Nothing grows as fast as regular duckweed. Lol. Not as fast though seriously. It’s a great plant. ☺️

Aquarium plants are so expensive, is there any house plant that can also work under water?
The cool thing about all the floating plants is you only have to buy them once and they will propagate forever! :-)
Hi Joana!

Duckweed isn't a problem. You just pull out the excess.
Several of these are on the invasive weeds list, aren’t they?
Some, yes. ☺️I tried to mention that a couple times. Always best to check your area and of course, use responsibly.
Yeah i cant order water lettuce in florida...or at least the area of fl i live which is tampa. Yet another reason to move. FL sucks
Uh oh! Dwarf water lettuce is what I use in my tanks right now and I use tank water to water my garden 😳
Well, actually I do too. I just don’t put the plant directly into the pond and call it a day. ☺️
What a great video Joanna! I’m kicking myself, I was considering frogbit last year at my local LFS and passed on it. Whenever I go back they don’t have it in stock. 🤦🏻♀️ Now after your video there are so many more I’d like to try too! All of them really. 😁🌱🤩🍃😁 Enjoy your day! 😊
