Care Tips
Care Tips
Lighting: Thrives in low to high lighting; lower light results in slower growth.
CO₂ & Fertilization: CO₂ is not necessary but can enhance growth; benefits from liquid fertilization, especially in nutrient-deficient tanks.
Temperature: Prefers water temperatures between 65–80°F (18–27°C).
Water Conditions: Best in a pH range of 6.0–7.5 with soft to moderately hard water.
Water Flow: Prefers calm water; excessive surface agitation may cause damage to the delicate roots.
Trimming & Maintenance: Regular thinning prevents overgrowth and ensures light reaches plants below.
Propagation: Spreads naturally by sending out runners that develop new plantlets.

With its attractive floating leaves and beneficial water-filtering properties, Frogbit is a fantastic addition to aquariums, paludariums, and ponds, creating a more balanced and visually appealing environment.
frogbits arrive with mostly single leaf without any roots. Some of the leaves turn yellowish the day after. One week and all frogbit are dead.
I am sorry the Frogbit didn't arrive in good shape! Next time reach out to me upon delivery so I can refund or replace them - I stand behind my DOA policy and will always make it right!
Gorgeous and healthy! I was having a hard time finding frogbit elsewhere, so I was very pleased they had it! Arrived in perfect condition, as always!
I’m giving it 5 stars because the frog bit arrived healthy and vibrant. But I could not keep it floating upright. Every time I looked they were upside down and the leaves started turning yellow so I ended up tossing the whole lot. Waste of time and money.
While the frogbit looked a little worse for wear upon arrival (shipping will do that), it rebounded quickly in my tank. One month in, it has taken over my 75g to the point where I’m giving some away to friends. No fertilizer, no CO2 and very basic lighting.
Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a good source for frogbit.
Good shop. Good productand good service
