READ ME: Our aquarium plants vary in growth forms and will require time to transition to submerged or emersed conditions. We do our best to clean and inspect all plants prior to shipping but do not guarantee them to be snail free unless tissue culture is purchased.
Tissue culture plants are cultivated in sterile lab settings ensuring your plant is free from pests, snails and algae! These are young specimen that are grown in emersed forms. Gel should always be removed prior to planting.
Live plants are susceptible to stress and damage from transit. - This may appear in the form of minimal melt, leaf loss, cosmetic damage, etc. Refunds or replacements will not be issued for plants with viable root systems or that die out of our care.

Micranthemum ‘Monte Carlo' is a low growing aquatic plant commonly used in planted aquarium tanks. This listing incluldes a healthy portion of Monte Carlo readily attached to a stainless steel sheet, allowing you to quickly place it in your aquarium securely. It will then eventually anchor itself into the substrate naturally. Monte Carlo is a popular carpeting foreground aquatic plant that is commonly used in Iwagumi aquascape layouts and a variety of other planted tank styles. Known for being an easier carpet plant, Monte Carlo is loved by hobbyists of all skill levels. This aquarium plant is fairly forgiving, will grow in a wider range of aquarium conditions, and can adapt to low-tech planted tank settings. Its appearance is comparable to HC, Hemianthus Callitrichoides, but is slightly larger and less fickle.
It should be noted that it will take much longer to spread when planted in a low-tech aquarium and may stretch upwards if the lighting is insufficient. The addition of CO2 injection, medium to high lighting, and quality aquarium soil will produce a noticeable difference in the growth and appearance of Micranthemum Monte Carlo. Once established, Monte Carlo is a prolific grower and will require periodic trimming.
