Kit Craft Posted August 8 Share Posted August 8 Just had a curious thought, can I float bacopa indefinitely? I have been taking the clippings from my 2 gallon espresso stand snail jar and just tossing them into a hodgepodge clipping/snail caul tank. Anyway, I have noticed after a few months the root systems they are throwing off is crazy! They seem to grow fine too but the roots are amazing. I was just curious if there is any reason to not just leave them there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guppysnail Posted August 13 Share Posted August 13 They will be fine floating. After extended float times they will orient their growth towards the light so will look lopsided if you try to plant them at a later date. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bought some emersed grown Bacopa and decided to float it in one of my tanks to grow roots. Pretty fast it decided it quite enjoys growing emersed and is growing at 90 degrees from the surface of the water. It seems quite happy this way. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
