    The water lettuce I got from you two years ago multiplied so fast my pond was awesome. Bred the most fish ever that year. Makes for great compost add for the pile too.

    I have been wanting water lettuce for a few years now, but I can't ever find it in stock anywhere. I love the look of the roots in the aquarium! And I'm sure my aquarium has plenty of food for this plant! 🤭
    Update 4/20/20 - I finally ordered my water lettuce!!! Yay!!! 😁

    So I have this plant red root floaters and another floating plant well they are losing leaves and many of them have been developing holes in there leaves. What is that about do they not have enough nutrients my tank isnt cy led yet but I consistently have 5ppm nitrates 1ppm ammonia. And 0ppm nitrites. Non of my floating plants are doing to well. But I have a good amount of red and green cabomba I have to trim it and replant once a week or every other week. They are growing so fast. I also have red flame moss which has gotten about 3.5 inches tall and I've trimmed one 2x2 patch of it so far down to 1.5 inches so we could see inside it better with the shrimp loving to hide in it. I have 3 Amazon swords but they dont seam to be growing very well they do have a bunch of brown algae growing on them. It's that or they arent getting enough light. Idk. I plan on scrubbing them off carefully tomorrow with a kids toothbrush see if I can get them growing better. And if not I'm going to remove them and get more flame moss.

    Mine are shrinking, roots dropping and are barely existing for some reason. Happened before and miraculously started growing again and was so excoted. Then they started dying again. I can't figure out why. Very little water movement. I've taken the lid off even though they came back with the lid. Salvinia is still growing. I dose easy green and leaf zone. I had started leaf zone just prior to them coming back but have continued it so now I don't know what's up

      Mine do the same. I live in the UK and I don't have tropical fish, only cold water Medaka. I think these plants need warmer temperatures and more direct light. I even bought fertilizer and follow dosage. I'm not having much luck.

    I ordered some dwarf water lettuce and I got them today I have a 20 gallon tank with tiger barbs that don't like too much light.
    I have a spectrum light.
    They were wrapped in a wet paper.
    I know nothing about these so I just carefully placed them in my aquarium. It was about five of them very delicate.
    I noticed that one of the roots were floating not connected to the plant and my tiger barb ate it. Sucked it right up I hope it's not going to hurt my tiger barb.
    Is there anything I'm supposed to do besides put them in my aquarium.
