hey man, great tank you've got there.
How many KG of stone you have in your tank?
Looking great mate! MC growth is nuts (just like mine). If you need anymore I have heaps. Love how the hobby has taken off in Perth.
Do you have a frosted background? If so, I'd double it up.
What colour are the leaves? Are the newest leaves smaller and paler than the older leaves? If they are it may be high levels of PO4--- removing iron (Fe+++) ions from solution....and small in general
In Duckweed (Lemna) short roots are usually a sign of nitrogen rich water, basically the plant can uptake all the ions it needs from a small section of root, allowing it to concentrate on producing more photosynthetic tissue. I'm not aware of any published work on Limnobium's response to nitrogen, but I would be surprised if it was any different.real short roots

That sounds like a plant mobile element., I will have to check the frogbit again in the morning, from memory the new leaves are nice and dark, but seem very small, the older leaves are tatty / yellowing.
The Frogbit has recovered well.This tank needs a good clean but I am liking the overgrown look
