I like that it has the common and scientific

It takes a while for the plant to get established and just barely started to grow

Arrived healthy. No melt. Alive and well 1 month since planting.

Very happy. Small reminder that they mention portion size can vary in the description. The cups I received had no growth that extended beyond the edge of the black plastic cup. Keep this in mind if you are using the picture to determine how much you'll need.

Nice plant

In comparison to the other plants in the order, the Monte Carlo was healthy, but a little sparse. Divided the plantlets and distributed them in the aquasoil. So far, all seem to be doing extremely well.

Monte Carlo

Very disappointed was expecting thick and green and got thin and pale. I’m just hoping after the melt they start spreading so fingers crossed. It could just be me also since this is the first time trying this plant so I’m scoring a three.

Don’t ship via USPS

They took a long time to get it to me. Plants were dead or dying by that point. The smell from the dead pond snails made me gag. I tossed it all. Not flip’s fault - just lousy delivery service.

Plant was beautiful when received, however, the roots were grown into the media, causing most roots to rip as they were being removed (I tried to be as careful as possible). I'm hoping it bounces back as the rest of my plants are doing well.

I received a good sized, and healthy pot of Monte Carlo. It was easily divided into smaller portions and it turned out to be more than I needed!

doing great!

My Monte Carlo is doing great! Settling in nicely, no dieback and lush and green. There was a lot in the pot so I divided it up and each little clump is spreading nicely. Very pleased!

The Java ferns were great but that's the first time I've ever planted Monte Carlo so I don't have a reference to know how good it was.

Great, low growing plant!

This is such a great plant, I need to order more! It's low, like I wanted, and mine is slowly adding more leaves and inching across my tank. I'm going to get some for my nano tank, too.

I'm in the process of cycling my tank, and the Monte Carlo plant is doing fine! I haven't seen any melting either

Healthy Monte Carlo

First time to try a carpeting plant despite not running CO2 and they have been doing great! Seem to be thriving in my Amazonia II substrate. Colors are still a vibrant green and my new shrimp graze through it often. Thank you Flip Aquatics. I am super impressed with the quality and thoughtfulness of EVERYTHING I ordered.

Such a disappointment

We ordered several plants to get the tank filled with plants before we order some shrimp. Out of the whole plant shipment, only the Duckweed is growing and doing well. We ordered these and the water sprite, neither is growing. Very disappointing.

Hi Aimee!

We are so sorry to hear some of your plants are not growing well in your tank. We would love to help you with this. Please email us at store@flipaquatics.com.

Blue bolt shrimps and a monte carlo

Amazing delivery!! Not only did I get an extra baby shrimp but the package was perfect and the shrimp and plant came very healthy! I especially loved the instructions on how to introduce them to the tank and the little Swedish fish candy. The small touches really made me want to order more from here soon!
