Tropica Micranthemum glomeratum (Medium Tech)
Tropica Micranthemum glomeratum from North America is a graceful plant whose small, arched leaves make it look like a miniature version of Egeria. It has a characteristic trailing growth in intensive light, so it can be used as a foreground plant (stems from 10-20 cm tall, 2-3 cm wide). A compact group of Micranthemum glomeratum is very beautiful with its small, light-green leaves. In terrariums, the plant forms a compact cushion. It was used to be called Hemianthus micranthemoide.

In a few days, after placing your plants in the aquarium you will notice some of the leaves start to melt and fall away.
This means the transition process has started. Please note the plants might look DEAD, but they are fully alive, so do not panic. Also, after a few days you will notice new growth will appear and the plant will fully change its form into submersed growth. You need to continuously trim and put a fertilizer in for the plants to thrive in your aquarium. Two good fertilizers include Easy Life – Profito and Scape Complete or our premium APT Zero. All plants have specific needs but if you follow the general instructions on our labels the plant will transition well and will eventually succeed and prosper in your aquarium.

Good quality product, my Low-tech tank is not quite what it needs to thrive, but it is actually growing, so I hope once it establishes better root system it will multiply. The plant cuttings are already more than 2 x the size from when I planted them (roughly 3 weeks ago?) So I’m happy with it.
