You are purchasing 1 x Utricularia biloba pot similar to image 2&3. Has fine unusual foliage sometimes branched (image 3) especially when submerged. Could be a hidden gem for the aquarium trade?
Suggest pruning the moss to allow for the main plant to be dominant.
We have managed to isolate most of our terrestrial utricularia from the pest U.subulata which can have similar foliage.
This plant will be supplied in it's pot and carefully wrapped

Care:

Generally enjoys things on the cooler side with some humidity, probably best treated as if it were a highland Nepenthes. 

We are trialling mixes free of Peat and Sphagnum with great success, (Perlite/Vermiculite/Pine Bark/Sand and a touch of our native potting mix)

The usual mix other growers may use is Sphagnum and Perlite equal parts

Different conditions of their future homes may mean trialling different low nutrient media/ratios of the media

 Keep moist but not waterlogged as for other species, again probably best treated similar to a highland nepenthes when it comes to watering.
