Bacopa caroliniana 'Yellow flame' (GOLDFISH PROOF!)
RUGGED, GOLDFISH and CICHLID HANDLING Killer Plant.
THESE ARE RUGGED MONSTERS. They can handle the abuse of tough fish and beginners. These are WOW and larger than photos.
Bacopa caroliniana "Yellow Flame" Want a hardy stem plant that will give you a nice contrast to your background, without all of the work of faster stem plants that need trimmed all of the time? Say hello to Bacopa!
This Bacopa caroliniana is call the "Yellow flame" variety as it has been produced through selective crossing to accent the yellow tips. Bacopa isn't your fastest growing plant, but this is because it is thicker than most stem plants. It's leaves almost feel rubbery to the touch.
NOTE: We have now had this plant in stock for over a month. You can see how the tips will give you that Redish- Yellow FLAME look under some decent lights.
In the summer we grow it outside where it gets a pinkish red on its tips. (It will take all of the light you can give it or NOT give it)
NOTE: We have also grown in COLD WATER. (It doesn't grow as quickly but still thrives!)
YOU COULD USE THIS IN A POND or with Axelotls!
THIS IS A GREAT BEGINNER PLANT. It will take some time to get established but will make a nice addition to ANY Planted Tank. You are getting a bunch with 7-8 stems in it.
This will be one of your favorite plants!!! TRY IT

Customer Reviews
Got this plant a week ago and received about nine stems, fully rooted. Planted it in my aquarium, put a root tab underneath it, and I already have new growth on each stem.
It’s kind of a pain, taking off the rubber band and foam like wrapping around it without damaging the roots, but I accomplished it very happy with this plant. I can’t wait to see how large it grows and when it colors up.
This is absolutely stunning color, very healthy, and good size as well! Absolutely in love with this plant!
Ordered for the first time and will definitely order again! Great quality, no hitchhikers, arrived quickly and safely. Instructions were very helpful on the website prior to ordering and once arrived.
This plant, that plant, there all the best quality. Your shipping is the best of all the places I order from. I would order all my plants from you but sometimes unfortunately there out of stock.
once again, thank you Dustin.
