Hemianthus callitrichoides is one of the smallest aquarium plants in the world, and creeps over the bottom with millimetre-sized, round leaves. Hemianthus callitrichoides is an attractive and popular foreground plant for small aquariums.
It is not a difficult plant, but it requires good conditions such as enough light, added CO2, water circulation and fertilizer to thrive. If these conditions are hard to create, you may use Micranthemum ‘Monte-Carlo’ as an alternative, as it is less demanding.
Small pearls or bubbles of oxygen are often produced on top of the plants, adding a very lively aspect to the carpet.
If planted in small clumps a few centimetres apart, it will spread rapidly and cover the bottom like a carpet. Trim the carpet regularly, otherwise the lower parts will not get enough light causing root death.

Micranthemum callitrichoides ‘Cuba’
One of the smallest flowering plants in the aquarium hobby in foreground settings. A very beautiful carpet forming plant under optimum light and fertilization. CO2 injection is very much needed for its prostrate growth in the form of carpet. The creeping stem bears minute oppositely arranged leaves which are few millimetres wide and long. These leaves accumulate oxygen pearls underneath which brings about the detachment of plants from the substrate due to the buoyancy. So trimming is often performed to avoid this issue.
