Description

Relatively new to the aquarium hobby, this stem plant from the southern part of South America turned out as one of the most useful aquarium plants.

This undemanding Bacopa grows rather horizontal and densely branched under good lighting. It forms a dense, light green bush within a short period.

Bacopa australis may be relatively new in the hobby, however, it is already very clear that it will always be a number one choice for almost any kind of planted freshwater tank, especially due to its simplicity. At first glance, this South-American plant may look like a larger version of Micranthemum umbrosum, however, it is far easier in culture.
Even though this Bacopa species occurs in vast populations on rivers and lakeshores in South Brazil and Argentine, it was not described scientifically before the year 2001. Not much is known about its natural habitats, although, among others, major populations have been discovered in the enchantingly beautiful, crystal-clear calcareous rivers around Bonito, Brazil (Serra da Bodoquena, Mato Grosso do Sul).

This bushy-growing stem plant sports a tremendously intensive light shade of green. (read more)
