Monte Carlo Mat

$15.00

1 5x3inch mat per order.  Emersed Grown.

Can drop the mat directly in tank, or remove from mat and split up into multiple “plugs” to plant a bigger area.

Monte Carlo is a carpeting plant used in the foreground or midground of your tank, it can also be wedged into hardscape!

Monte Carlo can be grown low tech easily, but definitely requires at least medium light. If you want a dense carpet with any carpeting plant you absolutely need high light and co2.

A nutrient rich substrate or root tabs is preferred but an all in one liquid fertilizer works too!
