biodives Posted September 11, 2016 Report Share Posted September 11, 2016 I have been looking in vain for Cabomba in several stores for over two months. Since it is produced by Tropica I thought it would be commonly available but when I asked about the possibility to bring in Cabomba aquatica I was told importation of Cabomba is prohibited. Checking on Canada customs, only Cabomba caroliana is listed as a potential pest (and it has become an invasive species in some provinces, Ontario I believe), but its status is "not regulated". Anyways, Cabomba aquatica and C. furcata are tropical species that should pose no risk to Canadian natural waters. Does anyone know if all Cabomba is indeed off limits or it not, where it can be purchased. If it is off limits, do any of you have C. aquatica, or know someone who does, and can spare/sell some. I would be willing to give C. furcata a try as well but probably needs more light/CO2 than I can give it right now. I'll pass on C. caroliana as it does not occur naturally in the Orinoco basin.
