I had assumed this floating plant I had was large-leafed duckweed (Spirodela). Earlier there was a thread here about gouramis eating a floating plant, and with the description somebody identified it as frogbit (limnobium laevigatus). So, then, I wasn’t sure any more what my plant was. I have now found on this great duckweed website http://www.mobot.org/jwcross/duckweed/ where it states “duckweed roots do not show secondary growth or branching, and do not sprout root hairs. “
I can’t seem to find anything much about frogbit. Can somebody please confirm by my pictures if that is indeed what I have? Each leaf is about 1/4 inch.
