Bacopa Monnieri

You will receive a clump of 4–8 Bacopa Monnieri stems, freshly harvested and packed to arrive in excellent condition.

Bacopa Monnieri (also known as Water Hyssop or Brahmi) is one of the most versatile and forgiving stem plants in the hobby. Its small, rounded leaves grow in neat opposite pairs along each stem, creating a lush, full look that works beautifully as a mid- or background plant. Under higher light, it may develop a subtle reddish hue along the stems.

✦ What you're getting
Each clump contains 4–8 individual stems, providing immediate coverage and density when planted. Stems are grown emersed, which means they arrive with robust roots and transition quickly to fully submerged growth.

✦ Care at a glance
• Difficulty: Easy — great for beginners
• Lighting: Low to high (adapts well)
• CO₂: Not required, but appreciated
• Fertilizer: Thrives with basic root tabs or liquid ferts
• Temperature: 68–86°F (20–30°C)
• pH: 6.0–8.0
• Placement: Mid to background

✦ Growth & propagation
Bacopa is a fast grower under good light and nutrients. Simply trim the tops and replant cuttings to multiply your colony — within a few weeks you'll have a dense carpet of stems across your tank.
