Cabomba furcata grows to a height of 30-80+cm and a width of 5-8+cm. This is a very beautiful but also difficult plant because it requires more light than most aquariums can provide. Soft water and CO2 addition are also necessary for optimum growth. Death of lower leaves indicates insufficient light. In good conditions Cabomba furcata develops small, long floating leaves and often forms beautiful purple flowers. Should be planted in groups but not too close because the light has to reach the lower leaves. Used to be called Cabomba piauhyensis.
