Micranthemum 'Monte Carlo' – Invitro Aquarium Plant

Micranthemum 'Monte Carlo' is a foreground carpeting plant prized for its small, round, bright green leaves and dense, spreading growth habit. Often used as an easier alternative to Hemianthus callitrichoides (HC), it forms a thick, even carpet across the substrate, giving aquascapes a lush, natural meadow-like foreground. Supplied in a 100% sterile invitro pot by Aquafleur, this plant is free from algae, pests, and snails, making it a safe choice for shrimp and delicate aquariums.

Monte Carlo spreads via runners, gradually filling in gaps to create a continuous mat. Moderate to high lighting and a nutrient-rich substrate encourage the densest, fastest carpeting, and while CO2 isn't essential, it noticeably speeds up growth and helps prevent the plant from stretching upward instead of spreading out.

Invitro Cup:

  • Each Cup has 6-8 plants in.
  • Plug-and-Play: Each plant comes in a sealed, gel-filled cup, complete with its own nutrient-rich substrate. No more messy planting or troublesome algae issues. Just open the cup, rinse the gel off the roots, and plant directly in your substrate.
  • Pristine and Pesticide-Free: Invitro plants are meticulously cultivated in a sterile laboratory environment, ensuring they are free of pests, diseases, and algae.
