Anubias barteri var. nana 'Golden' is a stunning variation of the classic Anubias, prized for its vibrant, light green to golden-yellow leaves. This resilient epiphyte is perfect for adding a bright pop of color to the foreground or midground of any planted aquarium.

Why Choose It

• Vibrant Contrast: The striking yellowish-green foliage acts as a natural spotlight, creating beautiful contrast against dark driftwood, dark substrates, and deep green plants.

• Beginner Friendly: Retains the legendary hardiness and adaptability of standard Anubias, making it almost impossible to kill.

• Herbivore Resistant: Features the same tough, leathery leaves as regular Anubias, which deter most plant-eating fish and snails.

• Ultra Low Maintenance: A slow-growing plant that requires almost zero pruning, no CO2 injection, and minimal fertilizers.

Planting & Care

• Attachment: Never bury the thick horizontal rhizome in the substrate, as it will suffocate and rot. Use aquarium-safe cyanoacrylate super glue or dark thread to secure the rhizome directly to rocks or driftwood.

• Upkeep: While it survives in very low light, providing slightly more light (medium) helps maintain its signature bright golden coloration rather than reverting to standard green. Keep flow gentle to moderate to keep the broad leaves clean.
