*I hate it when floating plants stick to my hands and arms, so I finally got the right tool to get rid of them. What's your favorite tool for removing floating plants?*

Great idea! I was tranplanting my duckweed from my shrimp tank to my Red Eared Slider tank, but always worried about baby cherry shrimp being transported as well with a net. This is a great alternative.

I absolutely love your voice and listening to you speak, it's quite relaxing! Also that is a nifty idea with the comb XD

That was so cute! Glad he enjoyed the little treat! 😂

Great idea i have water spangles and red root floaters I just use my hand lol then feed them to my chickens when the aquarium needs more light do a little fixing at the end with long tweezers they grow fast 👍

I never even thought of composting them!

Floating plants melt on me. Frogbit is my favorite but 3x now batches just melt after time 😢

I use a big fry spider from the kitchen 🥲🤣

The one I know best is maganese, plants suffer problems taking in maganese nutrition with anything above 6.5 PH

Every time I remove them they all die rip frogbit and red root floaters

This looks way better than the old gift card I use.

Hey ! My floating plants are alwais dying and i suspect that it might be because my filter is too close to the surface. But theb i dont have a lot of surface agitation to promote oxigen absorbtion with water flow ... How do keep them so well ?

[RobsAquariumRoom]

Nice, I used a fish net but it get stuck to the net.

Me with my dramtic frogbit that is cureently almost all dead.... I have yet to have to remove any of it it just keeps dying 😅

[abdangry]

They slow down my water change process and make it more difficult had to remove them all together

What is the best beginner floating plant?
I’m wanting one so bad! But I don’t know where to start with them.

[pencilpauli]

I tried that method, but I only have one comb and now have red roots

Hey Irene! Love your videos! But uh, me and my family are going to Aquashella, and the website said you’d be there, but now it doesn’t. Are you going to be there? My daughter would love to see you there! Thanks! ❤

Am I the only person in this hobby that cannot grownfloaters? I’ve purchased a bunch and they disappear. 😢
