Trust us, you'd need a plant detective to figure out how to harm this resilient beauty. Anubias Nana is practically indestructible, making it the go-to choice for those who want lush greenery without the stress.

Appearance:

  • Petite and sprightly: Unlike other Anubias varieties, the Nana features smaller, rounder leaves, typically around 1-2 inches in diameter. They grow in pairs on slender stems, adding a unique texture and playful vibe to your aquascape.

  • Variable hues: Depending on the specific cultivar, Anubias Nana can boast leaves in a range of greens, including vibrant lime green, deep emerald, and even reddish-brown shades. This variety adds a touch of color and personality to your underwater world.

  • Compact growth: This plant stays relatively small, reaching a maximum height of about 6 inches. It's perfect for adding detail and foreground interest in aquascapes without consuming too much space.

Adaptability and Care:

  • Hardy champion: Anubias Nana is a true survivor! It thrives in a wide range of water conditions, tolerating temperatures between 68-82°F (20-28°C), moderate to high lighting, and a diverse pH range. This makes it ideal for beginners and seasoned aquascapers alike.

  • Low maintenance joy: This plant loves to please! It doesn't require special soil or CO2 injection, making it a hassle-free choice for busy aquascapers. Occasional fertilization with root tabs or liquid nutrients can enhance its growth and vibrant coloration.

  • Attachment options: Unlike some Anubias varieties, Nana readily attaches to various surfaces like rocks, driftwood, or even the aquarium walls using its rhizome. This versatility allows you to play with placement and create interesting visual compositions.
