Moneywort Bacopa Monnieri

Description

Moneywort (Bacopa monnieri) is a bright and cheerful stem plant that adds a crisp, clean look to freshwater aquariums. Its thick, rounded leaves grow in pairs along sturdy stems, creating a neat vertical structure that contrasts beautifully with more delicate foliage.

Known for its low-maintenance nature and slow to moderate growth, Moneywort is a great choice for beginner aquascapers or anyone looking for a classic midground accent that stays lush and green.


Care and Planting Directions

Plant stems vertically into nutrient-rich substrate with some space in between. It thrives in low to medium light, though higher lighting will promote bushier growth. CO₂ is optional but can enhance density. Trim and replant tops as needed to propagate and maintain shape.
