Your right it is a pain. The only way I know is to net it out, every time you go to the tank just pickup your net and take some out. It wont take long..just my 2 cents worth Ed

duckweed is amazing stuff i have cleaned it out of an outdoor pond so that it looked gone and in a week the top of the pond was completely covered

Duckweed is the only plant I can grow and it grows too good! I don't have any now. I'm always afraid a piece will slip in when I buy a new fish. Don t.

You have to be very diligent and scoop it out everyday and make sure you remove every single plant that you can find (check the corners, behind the filter intakes, etc...). I've always been able to remove it from my tanks by doing that. In a few weeks, it will be gone.

Ain't that the truth! One tiny piece can start the colony all over again.
