Frog bit (the perfect Floater)
NOTE: 1 portion size looks like the photos labeled "1 PORTION SIZE"
How would you like the perfect floating plant? A plant that doesn't take over like duckweed? A plant that you can easily remove if it is blocking out too much light?
A plant that has the most symmetrical from of any floating plant?
Say hello to Frog bit. What is it's scientific name? In the words of a great southern plant supplier... "Honey, it didn't come with a birth certificate." (We believe it's Limnobium laevigatum)
This is cool round little plant.
It has leaves that are around an inch in diameter. They are nearly perfect circles. Unlike a dwarf lily or a red tiger lotus these leaves have a thicker texture to them. They seem to be a bit more durable.
While I don't keep plant eating fish, I would guess these would hold up to plant eaters a tad better than a duckweed.
These would make a great edition to a tank that is suffering from an algae problem as they would be able to cover a decent amount of surface area in a small amount of time.
LIKE ALL FLOATING PLANTS... These have the "Aerial advantage" that is to say they can get more both more light and CO2 from the waters surface. (CO2 is easier to obtain form the atmosphere than in water, and the light- any light- doesn't need to penetrate any water at all)
What I like about this plant is how it stays as ONE unit and makes a "mini lily pad" setup for our smaller indoor setups.

Sorry to report my plants were Very warm. I’m not sure they will make it. First time ever I have had a problem
Everything I ordered Was Perfect! More than I Expected aswell, Will see Me Again!
I just received my order from Dustin’s and was pleasantly surprised how big and healthy the plants were. I’m never buying plants anywhere but Dustin’s from now on! I HIGHLY recommend spending an extra few bucks to get these plants that are so much healthier than any I’ve bought elsewhere.
Arrivied quickly with large, broad leaves!
I purchased a cold pack to help the plants survive the trip. I received the worst shipment of plants I have ever seen. I took pictures and sent them directly to Dustin's The day I received. The frog bit was green mush in a bag. Everything had to be thrown away. I have not heard from them on how they plan to resolve this issue. I have ordered from them for years but this will be the last time if not resolved.
