Flag: this listing arrived with no prior content and appears to be the same species as the "Frog Bit — Portion" aquarium listing (fixed a typo — "Limnoblum" → "Limnobium" — in the process). Kept as a separate listing since it's framed for pond use, but flagged for Henry to confirm whether this should be merged with the aquarium listing or intentionally kept distinct. Can spread aggressively outdoors — check local regulations before releasing into open water. |
Care & Planting: Simply float on the water's surface. No planting required. Thin regularly, especially in ponds where it can spread quickly.
