Sale price£18.99

Anubias barteri var. nana is one of the most popular and resilient aquarium plants, perfect for both beginners and experienced aquascapers. With its compact growth, dark green, leathery leaves, and slow-growing nature, this plant is ideal for creating a lush, natural look in any freshwater tank.

Unlike rooted plants, Anubias nana does not require substrate planting. Instead, it thrives best when attached to driftwood, rocks, or decorations, making it a versatile midground or foreground choice for aquascaping. Its thick, durable leaves make it resistant to herbivorous fish, including cichlids, and it provides excellent shelter for shrimp and small fish.

Key Features:

  • Size: Compact, with broad, dark green leaves (5-10 cm in height)
  • Light Requirements: Low to moderate – thrives even in shaded areas
  • Growth Rate: Slow-growing, requires minimal trimming
  • Placement: Midground or foreground, best attached to hardscape
  • Care Level: Beginner-friendly, extremely hardy
  • Ideal For: Aquascaping, nano tanks, shrimp tanks, and cichlid aquariums
