I had lucky bamboo in 3 of my tanks for over 1 year now and it's a great addition to any tank. Little maintenance to the plants and so far no fish or frog of mine have suffered any ill effects. I have them totally submerged. The straight lucky bamboo did not grow side roots but the curly bamboo did. Stay away from that it does not look as pretty, but none of my fish ever tried to eat the roots either and I have minnows, danios, SAEs, cory cats, CAE, tiger barbs and a BN pleco in this tank with the curly bamboo. My African dwarf frogs love to sit on the cut off portion of the bamboo and my dwarf puffers sleep on the leaves. Also at one point my goldfish where in the tank with the curly bamboo (until they got their own tank) and not even goldfish will nibble on the leaves. Great plants.
