Anubias barteri is one of the most popular species of anubias, so farmers have created a strain called Anubias barteri var. nana that stays smaller and more compact. The vibrant green leaves are oval-shaped with a pointed end, and the plant stays about 2–4 inches (5–10 cm) in height with a rhizome of 4–6 inches (10–15 cm) long. This slow-growing, low light plant can be attached to hardscape by placing a small dab of super glue gel on the roots.
100% Free of Pests
Tissue culture plants are "lab-grown" at the farms by taking a tissue sample from an existing plant and growing it in a sterile nutrient medium. While tissue culture plants tend to be smaller and more expensive than potted plants, they are 100% free of snails, algae, and duckweed.
Attach to Rock or Wood
For a natural look, anubias plants can be attached to rock or driftwood with super glue gel. Simply draw a small line of glue on the hardscape, and firmly press the roots of the anubias in place for 30 seconds or until set.
Plant Transition
Anubias leaves are quite hardy and don't tend to melt when placed underwater. However, this slow-growing plant can take several weeks to get used to a new environment and start sprouting new leaves. Dose Easy Green fertilizer to speed up the transition.
Perfect for the Easy Planter
This natural, rock-like decoration is perfect for the lazy fishkeeper. Just drop the entire anubias with its pot into the center hole of the Easy Planter, and place it in your aquarium. Works great with bare bottom tanks or fish that like to dig.
We Include Heat Packs and Liners Free of Charge
We have a custom-developed algorithm to include heat packs and insulating plant liners as needed, based on the weather forecast from our warehouse to your shipping address. This helps keep plants at stable temperatures, both in hot and cold weather. Other vendors typically charge you at checkout for a heat pack. We include them when needed free of charge because it's our job to deliver our plants to your door healthy.
I am starting a new, planted tank and needed a tried and true plant that would establish quickly- Anubias is that plant in my other tanks. I had never used this variety before, but it came very healthy, easy to clean off the medium used to keep it alive, and was easy to separate into smaller bundles. I glued them to some rocks a couple weeks ago and there is already new growth. All the plants I’ve received from Aquarium co-op have been healthy.

Healthy and hanging in there
Usually TC can be very delicate and not acclimate to an aquarium well, but my tank is still cycling and the nanas are doing well so far! They arrived with a few yellow leaves, but after removing them I haven't had any other losses.
Tip: don't glue the rhizome, glue the roots.

The plants look great.
It's nice not having to plant them in the aquarium right away. They come in nice and healthy.
