Amazon Frogbit is a fast-growing floating plant that helps absorb excess nutrients from the water, making it a valuable addition to planted aquariums and shrimp tanks. Its hanging root system also serves as a natural grazing area where shrimp can feed on biofilm throughout the day.

Care Tips

Amazon Frogbit prefers calm water with gentle surface movement. Excessive surface agitation can cause the leaves to stay wet, which may lead to poor growth or damaged foliage. As the plant multiplies, occasional thinning will help maintain healthy growth and allow light to reach plants below.

Perfect for Shrimp Tanks
The long, dangling roots create an ideal habitat for shrimp of all ages. Shrimplets often spend their time grazing on the biofilm that naturally develops along the roots, making Amazon Frogbit both a beautiful and functional addition to any shrimp aquarium.

Shipping Note: Floating plants can become compressed or show minor cosmetic damage during shipping. Once placed in calm water under proper lighting, healthy plants typically recover quickly and begin producing new growth.

Whether you're creating a thriving shrimp colony, a peaceful community aquarium, or a lush planted tank, Amazon Frogbit is an easy-to-grow floating plant that adds beauty while helping maintain a healthier aquatic environment.
