Anubias barteri var. Nana is a small, attractive plant that thrives in all conditions. It comes from Cameroon and is 5-10 cm tall; its rhizome is 10-15 cm or more. It grows slowly, and the leaves survive for several years, giving the slow-growing algae a chance to establish on the leaves.The best result is obtained by planting it on the rootstock of a stone or tree.If planted in the substrate, the rhizome should not be covered because it tends to rot. It often flowers under water. It is not eaten by herbivorous fish.
