Bacopa caroliniana
Introduction:
Bacopa caroliniana is a classic and robust stem plant native to North America, recognized for its thick, rounded green leaves and upright, bushy growth habit. It’s a favorite in planted aquariums due to its easy care and versatility—suitable for midground or background placement. Under high light, the upper leaves can develop a beautiful bronze or reddish hue, adding subtle contrast to green-heavy layouts. Offered in tissue culture form, this Ready to Grow Bacopa caroliniana is completely clean—free from pests, algae, and snails, ideal for healthy tank setups.
Care Requirements:
Water Parameters:
Temperature: 20–28 °C
pH Range: 6.0–7.5
Water Hardness: 3–12 dGH
Nutrient Requirements:
Thrives with regular liquid fertilization and does well with or without CO₂. High lighting enhances coloration and growth rate, but it can adapt to low-tech tanks.
Tank Setup:
Best planted in the midground to background in groups or rows. Leaves are thick and durable, making it a good choice for tanks with grazing shrimp or fish. Grows vertically and branches well after trimming.
Care Tips:
Rinse tissue culture gel thoroughly before planting. Space stems slightly apart to allow light penetration and airflow. Trim regularly to encourage bushier growth, and replant cuttings to expand coverage.
With its classic beauty, easy growth, and adaptability, Bacopa caroliniana is a dependable staple in aquascaping. The tissue culture version ensures a fresh, pest-free start for aquarists of all levels.
