Frogbit hates new tap water freshly added with anti chlorine, they turn yellow followed by brown and melt away. They prefer aged water.
Hello bros,
I have some frogbits in my office 1ft tank, last week, all frogbits are green, but over the weekend or rather this Monday, I see some of them turned yellowish, the rest of my plant in the tank are green. Received some feedback that it may be not enough lighting. however, I switch the light 24 hours in the office, except during working hours, the lighting are much more stronger, as I have switch on 2 lighting. Any idea why frogbit turned yellowish.

Thanks Tony, I'm having aged water, yes, did add the water conditioner, 3 in one, anti chlorine is one of them, so, how should we recover the situation, as I change 20% of water once a week.Originally Posted by Tony
how many watt is your light? and do not turn on 24 hours, plants also need to rest
no information yet, have to go back to office to check tomorrow, anyway, it is a small tube light and normal office light that use it at my desk, will be switch off after work, except weekend as sat and sun are non working days.
what fauna is in the tank?
Have 4 tetras and 1 guppy currently, will be keeping some shrimps and Borara Mera, if the soil is stable.
Cut down on the water change volume and let them adapt to the new environment. I'm assuming your lighting is sufficient.
I hve the same problem. I keep them with my discus thinking the planted tank is good with fertilisers as compared with my shrimp tank, it kinda got worse.
Since the tank water is clear after last change, I intend to hold it for a month before making any change of water, I guess the lighting is sufficient, especially, during office hour.
