Lesser bladderwort (Utricularia minor) is a small aquatic carnivorous plant that improves water quality by controlling algae. It poses no threat to fish or shrimp, making it beneficial in aquariums. Utricularia minor traps and consumes tiny bugs and microorganisms in tanks using small, specialized bladders. Their bladder traps the insects in 1/10,000 of a second
