Bacopa Salzmannii Purple
Bacopa Salzmannii Purple is a new plant to us. This plant has the rubbery feel of Bacopa Yellow Flame except instead of fire red, this plant is Bomb Purple!
It has the same thickness of stem as a Bacopa Yellow Flame but isn't as stout. The stem has a tiny bit of fluffy fuzz to it as well. We have found it takes a week or so to really get rolling, once settled in it grows pretty quickly for a plant of this kinda color.
It likes a tad more light but we have found it doesn't mind less light, it just wont settle in as fast.
Unlike Bacopa Yellow Flame, I wouldn't trust this plant with Cichlids, but I would try it with other larger fish.
One nice thing about all Bacopa is that they don't mind being planted in straight gravel, though they do better with a nutrient rich base. GET ONE They are a wild looking plant.
