Sales Description
Anubias barteri āPetiteā is a compact and highly versatile Anubias variety prized for its small, dark green leaves and dense growth habit. Slightly larger than Anubias nana āPetiteā, this cultivar offers a refined, natural look that is perfect for nano aquariums, shrimp tanks, and detailed aquascapes. Its sturdy leaves and low-maintenance requirements make it one of the best choices for aquarists seeking a durable and attractive foreground or midground accent plant.
Sold in sterile tissue culture form, this plant is guaranteed free from algae, snails, and unwanted pests. Tissue culture plants are an excellent option for hobbyists who want to introduce clean, healthy plants into established aquariums or new setups. The plant can be divided into multiple portions, allowing you to spread it throughout your aquascape.
Care Guide
Anubias barteri āPetiteā is an exceptionally hardy rhizome plant that adapts well to a wide range of aquarium conditions. It performs best under low to medium lighting and does not require COā injection, making it ideal for low-tech planted aquariums. Because it grows slowly, it should be placed in areas with moderate water movement to help keep debris from settling on the leaves.
As with all Anubias species, the rhizome should never be buried in the substrate. Instead, attach the plant to rocks, driftwood, or other hardscape using thread or aquarium-safe adhesive. Over time, the roots will naturally anchor themselves to the surface.
Ideal water parameters include temperatures between 70ā82Ā°F (21ā28Ā°C), a pH of 6.0ā7.8, and soft to moderately hard water. Occasional dosing of liquid fertilizers can help maintain healthy foliage and encourage steady growth.
Its tough leaves are highly resistant to damage and are rarely eaten by herbivorous fish, making this plant suitable for a wide variety of aquarium inhabitants, including shrimp, snails, bettas, and peaceful community fish.
Propagation
Propagation is accomplished by dividing the rhizome into sections, ensuring each piece has several leaves and healthy roots. Each new section can then be attached to additional hardscape to create multiple plant clusters.
