Floater issues

[nduli]

They are throwing out new leaves each day. Old leaves starting to deteriorate pleased with new growth.

Cool hope they do well mate

Is yours duckweed?

Hi all,
Looks like either potassium or nitrogen deficiency. I'd try adding some KNO3. Could well be snail damage as well. If you turn a leaf over, and it is snails, you will see hollowed out bits in the aerenchyma "float" cells.

I always know if any baby pond snails (Lymnaea stagnalis) have crept into the tanks (I added them to the water butts and Daphnia buckets to graze the biofilm), because they eat the floats on the Frogbit.

Darrel, determined now that it's definitely snails and likely the bladder snail any ideas on how to rid in the tank without impacting my shrimp population?

Ignore, I'll pick out, collect on lettuce leaf or go for further assassins. Tbh probably all 3 need to be done. Google is my friend.
