Green Cabomba / Cabomba caroliniana aquarium plant for breeding bettas?

Question

i have some Green Cabomba plants in my tank, which I'm breeding Betta's. and i wondered if it produces the infusia that the fry feed on. (here is a picture http://www.aquahobby.com/garden/e_cabomba.php)

they have already been in the tank for 1 week.

Answer 1

Plants do not produce infusoria, they just provide a home for it.  Infusoria is an umbrella term for a number of aquatic microbes that fish will eat.  Simply having a biologically active tank (teeming with microscopic life) will essentially allow the Cabomba's surface to be colonized with infusoria.  After a week, it's probably a safe bet that it's coated with microbes.
