Care Tips: Cabomba aquatica, also known as Carolina fanwort, is a fast-growing aquatic plant with fine, feathery leaves. It thrives in high light and requires a nutrient-rich substrate. This plant does well in a tank with good water movement and will benefit from CO₂ supplementation. Regular pruning is necessary to maintain its appearance, as it can quickly grow out of control in ideal conditions.
