The species is cultivated as an aquarium ornamental. It needs a supply of cool, slow-moving water and strong light. It can grow rapidly under the right conditions and makes an attractive, bushy plant. It can be grown in ponds as long as the water temperature does not exceed about 82°F (28°C). It propagates easily by cuttings and high levels of carbon dioxide speed growth. Some fish will nibble on the leaves.
