Cabomba caroliniana
Origin: North America
Cabomba caroliniana is a stunning feathery stem plant from North America with fan-shaped whorls of finely divided green leaves that provide exceptional visual texture and movement in the aquarium. One of the fastest-growing stem plants under good conditions, it is a favorite for community and breeding tanks where it provides dense cover and natural filtration. Supplied as a healthy Tropica potted plant.
Plant bunches of 5–7 stems in nutrient-rich substrate. CO2 injection significantly improves growth density but is not strictly required. Medium lighting is sufficient. Trim regularly — Cabomba grows vigorously and must be managed to prevent shading lower plants. Provides excellent fry and shrimp cover. Sensitive to hard water — softer water produces better results.
