Duckweed seems to be the bane of many aquarium keepers, although I am thinking of getting some in my axie tank. I like the green carpet look and the little roots that hang down.
Most people complain that it reduces light in their aquarium and cuts too much ammonia, both needed for other plants in the aquarium. But axies like little light and no ammonia, and we are limited to what we can grow in the tank anyway due to the low light/heat conditions needed for an axolotl tank anyway. It also spreads like crazy.
I think duckweed would be great for my tank, although everyone seems to hate it. Should i go through with this? is it really as terrible as everyone says? Anyone with duckweed experience?
