Ceratopteris cornuta is suitable as a floating or underwater plant which grows to a height of 25-50cm and a width of 10-30cm. If a leaf is allowed to float on the surface, small plants form on the leaf margin and can be planted in the bottom. In good light Ceratopteris cornuta grows fast and helps prevent algae by consuming large amounts of nutrients. This makes it a good starter plant in large aquariums. The roots of the floating plant provide good protection for young fish. The plants used to be called (mistakenly) Ceratopterris thalictroides.
