MICRANTHEMUM TWEEDIEI "MONTE CARLO" – Fast-Growing Carpet Plant for Foreground – Tropica 1-2-Grow!
Micranthemum tweediei "Monte Carlo" is one of the most popular carpeting plants in aquascaping thanks to its compact growth, fast spreading, and vibrant light green color. Native to Europe and East Asia, this plant develops along creeping stems with small, round leaves that quickly form a lush, uniform foreground in the aquarium. Its dense and low growth makes it perfect for natural layouts, nano tanks, and shrimp aquariums.
To thrive and maintain a compact appearance, Micranthemum Monte Carlo requires good lighting and consistent CO₂ supplementation. Under ideal conditions, it spreads rapidly across the substrate, creating a decorative and biologically beneficial carpet. Its adaptability makes it suitable for both beginners and experienced aquascapers.
The Tropica 1-2-Grow! format ensures the plant is lab-grown in sterile conditions, free of pests, algae, and pesticides, making it safe for shrimp and sensitive fish. Each cup contains young, healthy plantlets ready to be divided and planted directly into the substrate.
