About this plant
Grow a soft green layer across the front of your tank with Monte Carlo. Its small, round leaves need suitable lighting and plant nutrients to fill in well.
Is this right for me?
This plant needs attention to lighting and planting. If you are new to live plants, check the setup steps before choosing it.
How to place and care for it
Plant at the front of the tank in suitable plant soil with nutrients for the roots. Give it bright aquarium lighting. Extra carbon dioxide (CO2) is recommended for a thick, low carpet of leaves; growth may be slower without it.
Light and placement
Light: Medium to High aquarium lighting. Place it: Front of tank. Extra CO2 can help. CO2 means carbon dioxide, a gas plants use to grow. Adding extra CO2 needs separate aquarium equipment.

Live animals travel best when someone is home: bring the box inside as soon as it arrives and keep it out of the sun or cold.
Live Arrival Guarantee. If an eligible animal arrives dead, take a photo in the unopened bag and one on a paper towel, then email hello@tailsandfin.com within 12 hours of delivery. Snails can rest up to 5 days and plants about 15 days to settle. Read the full policy.
Acclimating: float the closed bag for 15 to 20 minutes, then add a little tank water every few minutes for 30 to 60 minutes (shrimp like it slow), net them into the tank and pour the bag water away. Keep the lights low for the rest of the day.
