What I Did This Morning
Regarding this gadget, does anyone have positive experience with it.
To Dunter, after you have laboriously removed every duckweed you find, my
experience is that there is always one more hiding somewhere, in a filter
pipe, under a leaf etc. Check again in about 1 week, to prevent the
next onslaught. It usually takes more than one episode of mechanical
removal to truly make your tank duckweed-free. Even though it's a
nuisance, I wish I could get rid of my snails as easily. Is there some
magic potion I could put in which would make all my snails float to the
surface where I could pick them off like duckweed? *humour*

I spent two hours picking duckweed out of a 30" x 12" x 3" mat of
Riccia
with tweezers and a jewelers loupe while my four-year old ran around
my
legs
tunelessly screaming Christmas songs and my two-year old repeatedly
attempted to immerse himself in the rinse bucket. I HATE duckweed...
and,
at this point, nearly everything else.
