Product details

Bacopa Monnieri

Bacopa monnieri, also known as water hyssop or Brahmi, is a popular and hardy aquatic plant. Known for its bright green, fleshy leaves, Bacopa monnieri is easy to grow and maintain, making it an ideal plant for beginners and experienced aquascapers alike. It has a slow to moderate growth rate and can adapt to a variety of water conditions, making it a versatile addition to any aquarium.

Under higher light, Bacopa monnieri will develop thicker foliage and grow upright, while under lower light, it may spread out and grow more horizontally. It is capable of growing both submerged and emersed, and is often used in terrariums and paludariums as well. In emersed form, Bacopa can produce small, delicate white or light blue flowers.

Care Tips:

  • Keep water temperature between 18-28°C with a pH range of 6.0-7.5 for optimal growth.
  • Provide low to medium lighting. Bacopa can tolerate low light but will grow more compact and robust under brighter conditions.
  • CO2 supplementation is not necessary, but it can improve growth speed and the overall health of the plant.
  • Trim regularly to maintain a compact form and prevent it from becoming too leggy.

Ideal Placement in Aquarium: Bacopa monnieri is typically used as a midground or background plant, depending on the size of the aquarium. Its vertical, column-like growth makes it an excellent plant for filling out spaces and creating a lush, green backdrop. It can also be used in nano tanks due to its ability to grow slowly and its easy maintenance. The bright green foliage adds a fresh, vibrant appearance to any aquascape, making it a versatile choice for a wide range of setups.
