About
Anubias nana is one of the most popular and versatile aquarium plants, featuring small, oval deep-green leaves on a robust rhizome. It adapts to virtually any water condition and light level, making it suitable for beginners and experts alike. Ideal attached to hardscape or as a foreground accent plant.
Care Guide
Tie or glue rhizome to driftwood or rock — never bury it. Thrives in low to medium light without CO2. Use liquid fertiliser weekly for best results. Remove yellowing leaves to encourage new growth. Propagate by dividing the rhizome, ensuring each section has at least 2–3 leaves.
