Cabomba is a genus of aquatic plants commonly found in freshwater environments, particularly in North America and South America. These plants are known for their delicate, feathery leaves that can grow submerged in water, providing habitat and shelter for various aquatic organisms. There are several species of Cabomba, with Cabomba caroliniana being one of the most popular in aquariums. They thrive in warm, nutrient-rich waters and require moderate lighting to grow well. Cabomba can also help improve water quality by absorbing excess nutrients and providing oxygen through photosynthesis.
