Bacopa caroliniana 'Yellow flame' (GOLDFISH PROOF!)
RUGGED, GOLDFISH and CICHLID HANDLING Killer Plant.
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!)
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
The plants I got look great. But shipping cost for shipping through usps would have been cheaper to through in an 8.00 box instead of an envelope and charging 10. And usps is one of the slowest ways to ship things it took about a week to get plants. It took so long to get I thought they were going to be dead. I would of had them shipped my ups and would pay the extra cost.
Little melting but all right roots
This was my 2nd order from Dustin’s Fish Tanks. Both orders were delivered very well packaged and in great shape. Dustin definitely knows what he is doing.
Received my first order today and was very happy with the plants! I was excited to open the box and was thrilled with the plants and shipping! Having some trouble with identifying the plants received but hopefully will figure it out!
These arrived in great condition and packaged very well. These are well rooted, sturdy plants. I have no doubts they will do well and fill in quickly!
