Anubias barteri nana

Called Dwarf Spear Leaf in the trade, this is one of the most popular aquarium plants there are. These are outstanding foreground plants that require only a minimum of care. Special attention must be paid to the rhizome when planting: the thickened rootstalk must not be covered with substrate. These small Anubias grow best when tied to stones or roots. They are frequently used with cichlids from the Malawi and Tanganyika Lakes.
