Any chance that frogs and/or tadpoles eat duckweed?!

It's taken me years to get rid of the stuff on our pond, had to
buy a skimmer (Oase SwimSkim) in the end and that has worked so
far. Never seen any of our fish eat it, indeed when they gulp down
a mouthful of pellets and accidentally get some Duckweed too they
spit it out. Maybe it's not carp that eat it.


Well it's not frogs either, or water snails, both of which are
plentiful in our tiny pond in France. I even saw a water snake
basking in it, resting on a cushion of duckweed. I wish I could
find something that would eat it - what fish might?
Koi and Grass Carp

Koi don't,
I beg to differ Bob..........but hey, what's a bit of duckweed between
friends ;')
