About this Plant
Lysimachia nummularia is an old-time aquarium main-stay. It is also regularly used as a plant for the margins of ornamental ponds and even in hanging baskets. While, like most plants, it is at its best with supplemental Co2 and good nutrition, it will also survive in tanks without supplemental CO2, especially if the water temperatures are not too warm.
