Micranthemum tweediei 'Monte Carlo' is a low, creeping aquarium plant that forms a fast-growing carpet across the front of the tank, its rounded leaves knitting together as the stalks spread along the substrate. It suits aquascapers who want a compact green foreground without tall growth crowding the rest of the layout.
