Bacopa Monnieri, also known as ‘moneywort’ among aquarists and ‘brahmi’ among herbalists, is quite wide which can be found growing along the banks of lakes, rivers, and pools. The plants usually grow as emersed, creeping stems during the dry season during which they tend to produce pinkish flowers at the leaf nodes. During the wet season, the rising water level usually submerges the plants for several months during which they grow in their more familiar, aquatic form. Bacopa monnieri is one of the most common stem plants in the hobby, with its popularity stemming from its ease of growth and unique foliage.

Description

Bacopa monnieri is easy to grow which needs bright lighting (2 watts per gallon or more). If lighting is not intense enough, the lower portions of this plant tend to rot. Co2 is beneficial, but not necessary. Although nutrient deficiencies are not readily visible, growth does slow if not enough nutrients are available. In Co2-driven, high-light aquaria, maintaining proper nitrate (5 ppm or more) and phosphate (0.5 ppm or more) will promote faster, more robust growth, as will regularly dosing an iron/micronutrient mix.

Difficulty: Easy
Lighting Requirement: Medium – High
Growth Rate: Medium
Tank Placement: Midground – Background

Note:

The displayed image is for illustration purposes only and is of submersed grown plants in aquariums under optimum plant growing conditions.

Depending on the variety, plants sent are grown in an aquarium in emersed or submersed conditions. Hence, plant/leaf structures may vary from those shown in pictures. When they are grown in an aquarium under optimum growing conditions as required by the plant (light, co2, and nutrients), they will get the appearance as shown in pictures.

All aquatic plants are priced on the basis of the individual stem.
