One of the smallest Anubias in the aquarium trade, Anubias nana ‘Petite’ is a hardy and popular plant for freshwater aquarists. Like other Anubias, this low-tech plant will thrive floating, on hard decor, or planted with the rhizome out of the substrate. Anubias nana ‘Petite’ is known for having smaller leaves and shorter stems, with the rhizome growing horizontally and the stems growing only a few inches tall. Because of this growth pattern, many aquarists choose to use this plant as foreground or midground in their aquascape.
