Bacopa caroliniana has been used as an aquarium plant for many years.
Apart from relatively good light it makes few demands. Its slow growth rate
makes it one of the few stem plants that do not need much attention. Like most
stem plants, it is most decorative when planted in small groups. Easy to
propagate by cuttings; take a side shoot and plant it in the bottom.
