Grown as a group, it fills in quickly and gives a dense, naturalistic look once it settles in.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMicranthemum umbrosum is a fine-stemmed aquarium plant valued for its small, rounded leaves and the dense, bushy clumps it forms when grown in numbers. It suits both small and large tanks. Grown as a group, it fills in quickly and gives your layout a lush, naturalistic fill once established.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLeft to grow, the stems reach around 10 to 25 cm in length and 1 to 2 cm across. Growth stays modest to begin with, then speeds up noticeably once the plant settles in, at which point the tips need pinching out fairly regularly to stop it turning straggly. The cuttings you remove can be replanted straight into the substrate to start new clumps.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis plant asks for more light than many easier aquarium species, and it responds well to added CO2, which pushes growth along further. Tanks with lower light may see it establish more slowly, so it suits keepers who can offer brighter conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor the best look, plant it in a close group of many stems rather than a single sprig. That clumping habit, paired with its fine round leaf shape, is what sets it apart from coarser, broader-leaved aquarium plants.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhat you get: a pack of five pots of Micranthemum umbrosum, supplied ready to divide and plant into your substrate.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOrigin\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNorth America\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDifficulty\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMedium\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAquarium placement\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMidground\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"AquaticsHub","offers":[{"title":"Potted (pack of 5)","offer_id":57679173255541,"sku":"TRP-048","price":37.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0922\/0610\/4949\/files\/micranthemum-umbrosum-aquarium-plant-potted.jpg?v=1792398027","url":"https:\/\/aquaticshub.co.uk\/products\/micranthemum-umbrosum-aquarium-plant","provider":"AquaticsHub","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
