Joanna an extra awesome reason to buy bacopa is when it grows out of the water 💦 it blooms a beautiful blue flower 🌺 a bonus just for you and I want to be the first one to say congratulations on your 5k subscribers and I know you will pass that by the end of this year wait a minute that's not a blue flower 🌺 oh well sending you some love ❤️ from Puerto Rico 🇵🇷 keep up the great work and say hi 👋 to Jason for me 💦📦,💦🌱🐌🦐🐟LOVE ❤️PEACE ✌️AND HAPPINESS 😊to you and your family
In my country ,Sri Lanka we have a Bacopa species called Bacopa monnieri. Not only its an amazing aquatic plant but also it is a medicinal plant in Sri Lankan traditional medicine.
I Had Bacoba in a pot with water iris in my pond outdoors. When rearranging pond I removed that pot and sat it in garden inside a container which held water most of the year. Then I forgot about it. 2 weeks ago upon discovering it growing out of water I I cut 6 inch long stems that were trailing over pot. I now have stems growing crazy in all of my 6 tanks. I love the light green colour that contrasts so well with other plants making the fish look more fabulous. Thank you for this video. Now I am able to put a name to my plant
This was the first aquatic plant that I did really well with, and really got me into planting my tank. It's all over now, and I can't wait for the bacopa forest to grow in the betta tank! She loves exploring through the stems.
Recently I've been falling out of love (bored) with Bacopa. But this video reminded me of all the great reasons I purchased it in the first place - and then some!!💚
Bacopa is a sturdy stem plant. Ive had it in bad lighting conditions and it doesn't melt away like anacharis or wisteria. And yes, I have it in my 2.6 nano tank. Very elegant looking vertical plant.
I've noticed my gel culture from Petsmart is a much more petite plant. I ordered some online and the stems are much thicker. It started to grow out of a tank, too. Hopefully it continues to grow outside the tank.
Yes! You are correct, I see the same thing. Although it could also be the difference between Monnieri and Caroliniana too. I only find the Monnieri at my Petsmart. ☺️
Moneywort was one of the first plants I got and just measured and some of it in my 8g column tank is 16” high! Slower growing but that means less trimming!
I bought Moneywort from my local Lowe’s. I actually have it planted in the ground near my garden pond as well as in the garden pond. I decided to try it in my aquariums as well. Both floating and planted. At this point, it’s sort of an experiment to see what works best. So far so good! Thanks for the video!
Hi! Thanks for the awesome video as always! I really like this plant. It is delicate looking, but is pretty hearty. It floats and is also planted in several of my tanks.😊
Great video! I have this in my 29g community tank as background plant. Then have it the front and keep trimmed in my nano tank. When I’ve trimmed the plants and plant in substrate the stems rot. I started to float them first to get some roots then plant, however they don’t seem to grow as well as the original stem. Would love to see a more detailed video on care and maintenance of this one. 🙏 take care!
Why do I love bacopa? Because I can keep it alive! I’ve been on a losing streak with a few plants lately. Joanna, your plants always look so beautiful...and no algae! :) 🌱 Have a great day! 😊
@@thesmallscape Well that makes me feel a little better about my plant struggles. Thx! 😉 But man can I keep garlic, snow on the mountain and star of Bethlehem alive! 🤦🏻♀️ I planted them so many years ago and they have spread where I don’t want them. Now every year I am digging them out of my beds. Such a time suck. If you need me you know where I’ll be!! Lol 😂
Bacopas truly are great! I currently have Bacopa Monnieri and Bacopa Colorata growing in my tank, although I've kept most varieties! Another cool thing about bacopas is that they are one of the easier stems to flower. Thanks for sharing Joanna!
I almost added this to my order from Flip Aquatics a couple days ago and don't know why I didn't. I did order some red root floaters and Mone Carlo. I can't wait to get them!
Thank you Joanna for another great video, but you got my appetite whetted when you said it grows in the garden also. I am pretty new with aquatic plants and am learning slowly. I love crypts and annubias because of their ease and the way they look. I would have liked to have seen side by side examples of both the emmersed and immersed examples of the bacopa that you mentioned. Also show how to trim and how the plant grows after trimming. Does it continue to grow singularly from the same stem or does it sprout 2 new stems. Also what type of fertilizer is best, liquid or root tabs? Could you possibly do a follow up video? Your videos are so instructional don't be afraid to let them stretch to 12 minutes or so.
Yes, its relatives grow in the garden! This is not the care guide or species spotlight, those are not ready to roll yet. You will then see different species and propagating and all that fun stuff! ☺️
Thank you for this information! I've been frustrated with some tissue culture bacopa that I got from PetSmart several months ago - I think I've gotten about 4 new leaves total from about 8 stems in the last 3 months when my other plants are growing fine... Possibly due to my super-soft low-mineral water?... Going to try floating it after watching this and also trying it in my "hard water tank" with Equilibrium (GuppyVille) to see if it does better. Never been able to grow anything "out of water" so love this channel to try to learn new skills!
@@thesmallscape Bacopa is already sprouting lots of new leaves a week after moving it into my mineralized (equilibrium) tank! Similar lighting schedule, ferts, etc. Plants are fascinating :)
I love this plant. I don’t have it at this time but did keep it in a 20 long with high/medium light (dimmer)and it was extremely dense. I was trimming often. Kept it in a 10g, co2 with high light and I was trimming constantly. Beautiful colors with or without co2.
Love this plant.... after it get started it grows amazing. I have it growing different ways in all of my tanks and it looks amazing in all ways. Am really enjoying the floating with my driftwood in one of my tanks. Thanks for sharing 🤓
@@thesmallscape yes it is. Can do so many different aqua scapes from my nano to large tanks. Floating and growing out of water to planted in substrate 🤓
I love your videos, I watch them all. I am new to planted tanks and I went with bacopa! My problem is keeping it in the substrate as it wants to just float right out. Does anyone else have this problem? I’ve heard of weighting them down? Or maybe my substrate isn’t deep enough (approximately 1 inch)? I’d love to hear your thoughts or tips! Thank you.
I’ve got Bacopa Carolinlana and I think Monnieri which is meant to be more compact, however both are growing a bit leggy. Probably my lighting, but I quite like them any way 🤓
My bacopa is a year old. It has no yellow or dead spots but it also hasn't grown at all. All of my other plants are growing like crazy but this bad boy just doesn't . It hasn't even reached the top of my 20 long. It is green and looks amazing but it is so slow growing.
Hello Everyone, I'll be re-scaping my 15 gallon Fluval Flex soon. The plants have grown quite a bit since I first setup the aquarium one year ago. I need to thin them out and donate to others because there's very little room for the fish to swim in. My question is I purchased some small dragon rocks from a local fish store and one rock is darker than the rest so will soaking in a bleach solution lighten the color? Of course I afterwards I would soak the bleached rock in plain tap water with chlorine remover added. Thanks, Dan
So I'm new to aquarium keeping I have a spike in amonia would it eat that and it safe for gold fish I have a couple and even though I don't like them much I wouldn't want them to die there my daughters fish
Lol I feel like my bacopa tell scary stories to their bacopa children about me....I grew it in a really weird way so that most of it is in shadow, clinging to life, and then have tonnes of light to the leaves at the top... basically I have huge stalks and leaves on the top third....it works though!
I love bacopa. It absolutely thrived in my tank... until it didn't. No clue why, but all of the sudden, it just all died in less than a week. It was so frustrating.
I had no luck at all with any of my even from two different sources. They melted within a week. I've had great luck with other stem plants, so it's baffling.
I have similar tanks with similar setups and I've got thriving plants of the same species and puny ones in each, there's so many variables, just keep trying!
I have 2 tanks and the Moneywort bacopa I have grows best in the one with the harder water. So if you have soft water maybe add some extra ferts/ minerals?
@@thesmallscapewow it’s been awhile since I watched your videos and your husband’s channel tbh tho I just got started back into the aquatic plant and fish hobby I didn’t buy a aquarium bc I think that’s why I burned out I had 10 tanks my largest one was 100 gallons and my smallest was fluval 5 gallon then couple months ago I got a 300 gallon Rubbermaid trough and turned into a pond I really like it I added bacupa to my pond and I’m gonna add my old favorite plant water wisteria and I wanted to thank you for sharing your info on fish and plants and tell your husband I said thank you too it really brought joy to me as a kid
@@MusingsFromTheDen you're welcome🙂. I have a nano aquarium with led-light. Usually nano tanks do not have the best of light so I imagine that will be the case with my light as well. Don't know about your light? I do shorten the stems every month, because the lower leaves do not get enough light in my set up and therefore they tend to hang down a bit.
This was my 1st plant and is still going, not thriving, but going. Added another one recently, put in root tab and Ez Green and the stems turned brown within a week and pulled out of the substrate and floated till I threw it out. Waste of money.

This video inspired me to get some bacopa. I love your plant videos because your enthusiasm is infectious and also, we both have hard water.
Aww!! You’re so sweet! Isn’t bacopa fun?! ☺️
Recently I've been falling out of love (bored) with Bacopa. But this video reminded me of all the great reasons I purchased it in the first place - and then some!!💚
Aww!! That’s the coolest thing to say! Thank you to both you AND Bacopa! 😆
You're a breath of fresh air

I use bacopa in my bog filter, thank you for your post
That’s cool! ☺️
Great Video! I I just moved to Florida and my local pond is full of bacopa. Just grabbed a few and replanted them in my 50 gallon.
Nice! Isn’t that the coolest! 🌱🌱🌱
I've noticed my gel culture from Petsmart is a much more petite plant. I ordered some online and the stems are much thicker. It started to grow out of a tank, too. Hopefully it continues to grow outside the tank.
Yes! You are correct, I see the same thing. Although it could also be the difference between Monnieri and Caroliniana too. I only find the Monnieri at my Petsmart. ☺️
Thank you. I have been trying to decide what I want in my background and will definitely give this a look see now!!
Moneywort was one of the first plants I got and just measured and some of it in my 8g column tank is 16” high! Slower growing but that means less trimming!
Oh wow!! It’s a beast! It’s such a great plant in so many ways ☺️☺️☺️
I am going to try this plant. I have NOT had luck with stem plants in my tanks. However, your information is encouraging me to try again. 🌱🌱🌱
Well, in the gardening world, we say we sometimes struggle with a plant 3 times before it succeeds. Wishing you luck!😌
I used bacopa in my betta sorority it grew on top of water the bettas would lay in it at night.
Cute! Win win!
I bought Moneywort from my local Lowe’s. I actually have it planted in the ground near my garden pond as well as in the garden pond.
I decided to try it in my aquariums as well. Both floating and planted. At this point, it’s sort of an experiment to see what works best. So far so good!

How did it work out?
Hi! Thanks for the awesome video as always! I really like this plant. It is delicate looking, but is pretty hearty. It floats and is also planted in several of my tanks.😊
☺️ Do you? Nice! Exactly. Well said, kind of dainty but hardy. ☺️
Just got my first Bacopa (Caroliniana) plants last week. LOVE LOVE LOVE the way they look in my tanks!!!!

Hi Amber! We usually do the same and float it first. A more in depth care guide to bacopa will come out at a later date ☺️
I have bacopa Zalzmannii purple, and it’s a beautiful plant, in the background looks amazing !
I have mine growing vert. like California kelp fields and my betta swims thru them all day. If you trim to replant, cut it under the aerial roots .
bacopa is the first aquarium plant i ever bought .
now its in every tank i have , all from one petsmart tube plant.
Isn’t that so cool! Just love that! More more more!! 😆
Miraculously it survives when many plants fail
I love bacopa -- it grows like crazy in may hard water. I'm gonna have to start giving it away (or getting more tanks!)
Wow! What a great problem to have!
My Bacopa is the perfect hiding place for my baby Platies. They love it!
Yay! Such a great use for the wee little guys ☺️
Why do I love bacopa? Because I can keep it alive! I’ve been on a losing streak with a few plants lately. Joanna, your plants always look so beautiful...and no algae! :) 🌱 Have a great day! 😊
Oh yes. I’m all too familiar with losing streaks. (And, no, we try not to show the algae tanks!) 🤭😂

Hi Bonnie! It’s a great plant, that’s for sure. ☺️
Submerge or above the water! Wow!
Great video. I had bacopa as a background in a 5.5 gallon tank. I liked it but am getting away from stem plants because I am a tad bit lazy.
In a 5.5. Excellent!! Oh I get that being lazy part... 👍
Thanks

Muchas gracias, por la información, me anime a comprar
My bacopa spread by side shoots in the water column and floweres under high light dirted tank.
Nice! It’s a great plant!!
hmmmmm? I'll have to look for some! All my tanks are planted and I haven't tried this!
Well, good luck then! I think you would really like it. ☺️
Was waiting for info about flowers of bacopa. Mine seems to have flower buds but im not sure if ut would bloom underwater.

Definitely grows faster floating.
Yes!! You’ve got that right!
My bacopa feels like it dies of in floating condition.what should be done to prevent it
great information, what carpeting plant would you suggest for sand substrate
Hi! You could certainly try S Repens - which will be my next plant video. It’s a BEAUTIFUL plant! A lot of people like to use it as a carpet. 😌

Can I have shrimps and bacopa in the same tank?
Good Morning
I have bacopa in my Aquarium. It started getting holes in the leaves. Any ideas how to fix that issue?
Hi! It may be needing a bit of ferts?
@@thesmallscape I use easy green...I will up the dose. Thanks!
If using as a floater, does surface agitation bother it much. I've not had much luck with floaters due to that reason. Thanks!
Hi! In my opinion, no floater really likes it but I think bacopa can handle some more than most. 🙂
Would it thrive in a gravel substrate without fertilizers?
can I glue it on drift wood? thank you in advance.
💯👍👍
Greetings Joanna. What type of plants do you think might survive 86 degrees in my discus tank? Sincerely, Marty Borst
Java fern, anubias, crypts, Amazon swords, valisneria. Usually a safe bet with those. Hope that helps.
Hey Marty - bacopa is certainly worth the try! They handle a crazy spectrum of temps!
@@thesmallscape Thanks 😀🌿
Why are mine started with brownish edges on leaves???🤔
Tutto perfetto

can this be planted on sand?
can it live with african cichlids? like peacock?
Are this safe for turtles
