Micranthemum ‘Monte Carlo’ Tropica 1-2-Grow

Tropica’s Elatine hydropiper has changed its name! DNA-sequencing of the plant shows that the genus is Micranthemum. The commonly used name ‘Monte Carlo’ will be applied until the species is determined. The content of the cup is the same, now with the name Micranthemum ‘Monte Carlo’.

 

Micranthemum ‘Monte Carlo’ comes from Europe and Eastern Asia. It has compact, round and fresh light green leaves on creeping stalks and creates a fast-growing carpet in the front of the aquarium. The plant can grow in light shadow, but requires good light conditions, as well as CO2 additive, in order to develop optimally and become really compact.
