alexyay Posted October 30, 2015 Report Share Posted October 30, 2015 Do you plan on keeping it in a tank? If so, you may be out of luck. CPs are adapted to low-nutrient environments, so while they may like wet-feet (or be fully aquatic), they tend to not do so well in tanks. Utricularia gibba may be found, but is weedy and invasive, so not such a good choice. I have some Utricularia dichotoma growing in a DIY "bog" outside (along with a couple of other CPs), but I suspect it wouldn't do so well in my tanks. Unfortunately Utricularia graminifolia isn't available in NZ. But yeah, +1 for the NZ Carnivorous Plant Society - they were absolutely fantastic and really helpful when I met them (got myself a few cool beginner CPs, too!).

Benjansss Posted October 30, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 30, 2015 The only nutrients it would get is a crayfishes waste and this species grows in lakes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
