Anubias barteri var. nana is an extremely popular, undemanding dwarf spear leaf that grows very slowly. Its pretty dark green leaves make it ideal for use in the foreground to middle ground. Anubias nana grows best when tied to roots or rocks. When planted in the ground, the rhizome can rot, resulting in the death of the plant. Dwarf spear leaf occasionally comes into bloom even when kept permanently under water. Anubias barteri var. nana also feels comfortable in shade or low light.
Thanks to their hard foliage, Anubias are not nibbled by most herbivores and are therefore also suitable for use in perch tanks.
To propagate, simply cut off a piece of the rhizome with at least two leaves on it.
Anubias barteri var. nana also comes into its own beautifully emersed, for example in a permanently moist terrarium, paludarium or aquaterrarium.
Our recommendation: For magnificent plant growth, we recommend the Premium Nutrient Substrate when setting up a new plant NatureHolic GroundBooster
Expert Tip: With the NatureHolic plant adhesive stick this plant gently and easily on stones, roots and decoration . Made in Germany, the adhesive does not pollute the water and has no negative impact on the stock.
