Care Tips: Micranthemum Monte Carlo is a popular and easy-to-grow carpeting plant that is often used in aquascaping to create lush, green ground cover. When purchased in tissue culture form, it is free of pests and algae, ensuring a clean and healthy start. This plant thrives under medium to high lighting, where it can spread quickly to form a dense carpet. CO₂ injection and nutrient-rich substrates will greatly enhance its growth, but it can also grow in moderate light and with low fertilization, though it will be less compact. Regular trimming encourages denser growth and prevents it from becoming leggy. Monte Carlo is a great option for beginners, as it can be grown as a carpet or in small clusters and adds a natural, vibrant green base to your aquascape. It's perfect for aquariums with shrimp or small fish, as the dense carpet provides excellent hiding spots.
