Dense, bright green coverage for stunning foregrounds. Micranthemum callitrichoides Cuba is a popular foreground plant that forms a dense, vibrant carpet. Small round leaves create a lush green mat that brings any aquascape to life.

COโ‚‚ and moderate to high light strongly recommended for compact carpet growth. Without COโ‚‚, tends to grow upward. Trim every 2โ€“3 weeks to maintain density.

โœ‚๏ธ Propagation: Spreads via runners. Split and replant clumps to fill faster. Easy.
