I work in the pet business and we have bamboo plants for aquariums. The only thing is, they can't be completely submerged without eventually rotting the leaves. Occasionally we soak them in water for a while, if they look a little dry. They're better suited for little betta bowls (unless you can find a way to keep their tops out of water?).

Aquarium Bamboo Plant

What's sold as "lucky bamboo" isn't a bamboo at all - or an aquatic plant. The roots can take a bit of moisture, but the leaves need to be in the air or the plant will die. See the "blacklisted plants" in the following website - the scientific name for "lucky bamboo is Dracena sanderana, which is about 1/3 of the way up from the bottom! http://faq.thekrib.com/plant-list.html#blacklist

Bamboo is actually grass, and grows in soil.

I have had as well as seen bamboo in large vases with glass stones in the bottom and Japanese fighting fish in them (beta) But it really depends on the fish you have and what not ..... as for the bamboo yes it will grow:)

Always ask the pet shop before you put anything foreign in the tank, some plants for example can be toxic to fish - ask the experts where you got them.

It is probably what people call a "money tree" which is Pachira aquatica. in the wild they will grow to 60 ft. You probably have seen them braided and twisted, which is done by humans since 1986

Yes, but the top (leaves) need to be sticking out of the water.
