Micranthemum tweediei 'Monte Carlo' originates from Argentina. 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.

Claudio Sartor’s 210-litre display celebrates the scale and colour of a densely planted underwater landscape. Ferns, mosses and compact foliage sit alongside taller stems, with red plants providing bright accents among the greens.
Fabian Beck’s 54-litre Within the Flow explores planting both below and above the waterline. Wood carries the composition upward, with Anubias and other foliage creating a connection between the submerged planting and the exposed structure.
