A very popular aquarium plant owing to its beautiful foliage. The least
demanding of the Cabomba species, but still causes problems in poorly lit
aquariums. If there is not sufficient light, try Limnophila sessiliflora,
which requires less light. Most decorative when planted in groups. Eaten locally
as a vegetable.
