As their names suggest, aquatic bladderworts are a free-floating species that do well in fresh, but acidic, waters. They can be tricky to grow in cultivation because they grow very large, requiring small kid-pool-sized containers. Aquatic Utricularia don’t commingle well with algae, but are also harmed by algae-suppressive treatments. The only known way to suppress algae without harming utrics, is to introduce Daphnia (which also make great plant food) that eat the algae. Tadpoles will also control algae, but will turn to eating Utricularia when the supply of algae runs out.
Utricularia foliage is thin, almost fur-like, and looks like branching veins off of the main stem. Traps are interspersed among this foliage, and they together produce a boa-like structure that floats through the water.
During times of drought, some species form turions, or small dormant buds, that keep the plants preserved until water tables rise.
