I had one piece of duckweed get into my tank from a plant that I purchased at a local fish store. In just a couple weeks it has multiplied into about 50 pieces floating around on the surface of my 55 gallon. I have a lot of surface movement from a wave maker and my hang on back filter. I believe this may be the reason it is taking awhile to grow but its still growing regardless

I've tried to grow duckweed multiple times and I fail every single time. I consider it my super power.

Don't use only duckweed with tap (chlorinated water). You need a fair amount of nutrients in the water. If you change your water too often, you won't get enough nitrogen in water for proper propagation of duckweed. Beware, if you don't change your water enough, you might kill the most sensitive living creature in your tank!

This was exactly what I was looking for...interesting. I must be killing my duckweed off somehow because my buds are staying at a consistent number. Maybe getting sucked into my intake.

I wish this experiment had gone on longer. It looks almost like the multiplication stopped near the end. That would be interesting to explain.

Yes, it's beautiful. Yes, it filters out waste and excess nutrients. But it also fills up bays and other open water needed by waterfowl and other animals, leading also to putrid odors due to the bacteria of putrefaction. Don't discard duckweed into any public land or water.

I got some but I don't have an aquarium, slowly the leaves are dying. Everytime it multiplies and has a new tiny leaf it ends up dying. I had like 30 of them, now they've reduced to less than 10. How can provide nutrition to them? Do i have to change water every once in a while?

You need to add fertilizer. There are many options for aquatic plants available. A general purpose one for aquarium plants will work.

I don't believe 'huge amounts of protein". Do you have a reference for that as a fact? Plants rarely produce protein.
