Description

Elevate the beauty of your aquatic oasis with the enchanting Anubias plant. Renowned for its captivating appearance and effortless care requirements, this aquatic gem is a must-have for both seasoned aquarists and beginners alike.

One of the standout features of the Anubias plant is its resilience. Thriving in a variety of water conditions, it easily adapts to low to moderate lighting levels, making it a versatile choice for a range of setups. Whether your tank receives minimal natural light or is adorned with artificial lighting, the Anubias plant flourishes and retains its vibrant hue.

Caring for the Anubias plant is a breeze, making it an ideal option for both newcomers and enthusiasts with busy schedules. Simply attach the plant to driftwood, rocks, or substrate using its sturdy rhizome, and watch as it anchors itself and grows over time. Its slow growth rate means that pruning is infrequent, allowing you to sit back and enjoy its captivating beauty without constant maintenance.

Planting Tips:

  1. Choose the Right Spot: Select a suitable spot in your aquarium, terrarium, or paludarium where the Anubias can receive low to moderate lighting. Avoid placing it directly under strong lighting, as this can lead to algae growth on its leaves.

  2. Anchor the Rhizome: Gently attach the Anubias to driftwood, rocks, or substrate using its rhizome. Be cautious not to bury the rhizome, as this can lead to rot. Allow the rhizome to rest on the substrate or attached surface.

  3. Provide Stable Water Conditions: Maintain stable water parameters with a temperature range of 72-82°F (22-28°C) and a pH level between 6.0 to 7.5. Regular water changes help keep the environment healthy for your plant.

Care Guidelines:

  1. Low Light Lover: Anubias is well-suited for low to moderate lighting conditions. It's best placed in shaded areas of your aquatic setup to prevent excessive algae growth on its leaves.

  2. Minimal Fertilization: Anubias doesn't require heavy fertilization. If desired, use a liquid fertilizer with a focus on micronutrients. Ensure the fertilizer is designed for low-light plants.

  3. Avoid Burying the Rhizome: As mentioned earlier, avoid burying the rhizome in the substrate. Burying it can lead to rot and hinder the plant's growth. Let the rhizome rest on the surface or be lightly covered by substrate.

  4. Pruning Infrequently: Anubias boasts a slow growth rate, reducing the need for frequent pruning. Trim only dead or decaying leaves to maintain its aesthetic appeal.

  5. Compatibility: Anubias is an excellent choice for community tanks. Its sturdy leaves are less likely to be nibbled by fish or other aquatic inhabitants.

  6. Quarantine New Additions: Before introducing new Anubias plants to your established tank, ensure they are free from pests and diseases by quarantining them in a separate container for a few weeks.

  7. Regular Observation: Keep an eye on your Anubias for signs of algae growth or any changes in its appearance. Cleaning the leaves gently with a soft brush can help prevent algae buildup.

  8. Patience is Key: Anubias may take time to acclimate and grow in your tank. Be patient and provide consistent care to witness its gradual transformation.

Unveil the allure of the Anubias aquatic plant in your aquatic world. With these planting and care insights, you'll create a captivating haven that's both stunning and effortlessly enchanting. Watch as the Anubias thrives and graces your aquatic landscape with its timeless beauty.

Willing To Help!

100% satisfied with the service I received. I am new to the hobby and Leo took the time to answer any questions I had and even suggested a few products to help my plants thrive in their new home without harming any live stock.

Great Local Business

I have been in contact with the store since January in order to get the right selection of plants. Even with the pandemic and lack of supplies they were able to get my full selection which was pretty big. The quality of Tropica plants are impeccable. They answered all my questions and help me out with many tips regarding how to best plant my selection. If you wish to support a local business and get the best selection of plants 100% recommend using Aquascaperoom Canada.

Amazing Service

Great service. On time Toronto pick-up. Received a follow-up email from Leo the next day asking about my satisfaction with their products and service. That doesn't happen everyday and it was very much appreciated. I will buy from Aquascaperoom again soon.

Best Customer Service!

Such an amazing customer service. I ordered a few plants and some didnt look too good. I contacted them and they responded quickly. They took time to help me and walked me through what to do with the plants. They are very kind and understanding. I will be purchasing more from them in the future.

I’ve been using live plants in my aquariums for a little over two years. I get a lot of them from the aquascaperoom website. I have never had any problems, all the plants arrive very healthy and I bought their fertilizer tablets and liquid fertilizer and both are amazing for helping keep my plants healthy. They got so much variety on the website and the shipping is amazing. I can’t recommend them enough, you won’t be sorry you bought plants from this amazing business.

Express Shipping with DOA!

The customer service here was absolutely above and beyond! I had 2 items arrive in not so good health but that probably happened during shipping and not because of the company, regardless I was refunded the 110% store credit for the items. Everything was well packed upon my next order and even came with a 72hr heat pack for the plants! I will do a lot more shopping here and will recommend it to anyone! Thank you Aquascaperoom!
