MICRANTHEMUM MONTE CARLO – Fast-Growing Carpet Plant for Foreground – Tropica 1-2-Grow!
Micranthemum Monte Carlo is a carpet plant from Argentina, ideal for creating a dense, lush foreground in planted aquariums. With its small, round, bright green leaves and compact growth, it forms a fast-spreading carpet that enhances the natural beauty of any layout. Suitable for all tank sizes, it’s especially popular in aquascaping designs.
This plant thrives under medium lighting and with CO₂ supplementation, although it can also adapt to less intense conditions with slower growth. Monte Carlo grows horizontally, easily anchoring to the substrate and creating a uniform carpet that contributes to layout structure and biological stability.
The Tropica 1-2-Grow! version ensures a safe and sterile plant, free from snails, parasites, and algae. Grown in high-quality gel, it adapts quickly to the aquarium and is safe for shrimp and sensitive fish.
