Anubias Bartieri Petite Round on Lava Stone
Anubias Nana Petite is one of the most sought-after Anubias. Like any other Anubias, it is an extremely easy plant to grow and can survive a wide range of water parameters. They can grow in both aquariums and terrariums either submerged or emersed.
Anubias Nana Petite is a flowering plant that grows best when the rhizome is attached to a hard surface such as wood or stones. They have low to medium light requirements and can benefit from regular fertilization. CO2 is not necessary but can promote faster growth and more robust leaves. Since it is a slow grower, the leaves are susceptible to algae growth if placed under high lighting.
Propagation is easy and straightforward; simply cut or pull apart rhizomes to be replanted.

I planted this Anubias on a lava stone in my freshwater tank. It has been thriving for three months with minimal care. The leaves are healthy and it doesn’t need much light. Easy to propagate when the rhizome splits naturally.

Grew it in a terrarium with low light. The plant stayed green and didn’t show algae issues. I attached it to a lava stone and it’s now a stable part of the setup.

Very satisfied with the plant’s resilience. It survived a water change without stress and adapted quickly to the tank environment. The small size makes it perfect for a compact setup.
