    No life stock I also suspect no nitrates hmm but since my tank cycling should have ammonia then should have nitrates because the natural bb in my 2224 digest the ammonia to nitrates.maybe the frog bit suck alot of nitrates and not enough XD

    Re: frogbits melting...

    Bro, maybe its due to insufficient lights? i have 2 tanks, one is low tech, one is high light.... Nitrate & ammonia are both 0 in both tanks... the difference is lights and co2

    i notice frogbits grow very nice in high light(4wpg) tank... the one in low tech(2wpg) tank turns yellowish...

    No nitrate to suck or phosphate to suck. It is a happy problem. I love this word suck
