Micranthemum 'Monte Carol' is fast becoming one of the most popular carpeting plants for aquascaping enthusiasts worldwide. It features small, compact, round leaves that are light green in colour which contrast the farker plant colours and decor. With leaves on "creeping stalks", it creates a fairly fast growing carpet.
It is important to note that while Monte Carlo can grow in normal light conditions and even in the shadows, it requires both very good lighting and a CO2 additive to truly achieve an optimal carpet effect.
This plant is shipped in a 1-2-Grow! pot. Open the cup, divide the plant into multiple portions, and plant the portions close together to quickly encourage carpet growth.

more than I thought
This one little cup holds way more than I thought it did. I bought two and had no issues setting up a carpet.

Mostly yellow
The top section was green, everything else was yellow and is dying while doing the dry start method. Only one small section is actually doing well.
