Plenty of rotifers etc crawling around for it. Most all aquatic C plants do
fine for years without live foods. Haven't found one yet that does not. Over
feeding your fish food will increase rotifer densities or you can use dead
food also or daphnia etc.
Unlike Utricularia, this plants has venus fly trap doors. Very cool.
Many of the CP people are not good at growing aquatic CP's, we could help:-)
