This is what I have from 1 stalk in just some days its growing like crazy enjoy.. btw I have no previous experince with these water carnivoure ones it is: Utricularia australis.
I would grow it with some companion plants, e.g. other plants it would live with in its natural environment. Try adding a layer of peat or something on the bottom of the tank, perhaps try some easy water plants like water hyacinth. If you have a water garden, you'll have no prob growing it most likely
Uh, fish will likely eat it. You should probably find a different container, or at least use one of those little isolation nets for rearing fry to keep the fish away from it. Otherwise, an aquarium probably isn't a bad place to try. If you have problems with algae growing on the strands, try moving them to a container that's opaque and dark colored.

Hi nice tips but atm I got them in a fish spawn container or what u call it. and they seem to be growing very happy there When they have outgrown that il place it in the tank without the container since then it will be to many to lose them all to my fishs.. I guess hehe
Sounds like you've got it under control. Have you considered getting some Daphnia or other critters to feed both the fish and the plants?
Good luck,
~Joe
hm intressting thought jimscott. but what is Daphnia ? I have been thinking that iff i had many Guppy fishs maby their spawns could feed the plants or they are to bigg for the plants traps ?
