Stoffels Anubias barteri var nana Golden (Low Tech)

Stoffels Anubias barteri var nana Golden is a striking variant of the classic Anubias nana, featuring vibrant golden-yellow leaves that bring a splash of color to any aquarium. Its compact, slow-growing nature makes it ideal for aquascaping in foreground or midground areas. Hardy and low-maintenance, it thrives when attached to rocks or driftwood, and its small size makes it suitable for nano tanks as well as larger setups.

Key Features:

• Golden Leaves: Features bright yellow to golden leaves that provide a striking contrast in aquascapes.

• Compact and Slow-Growing: Maintains a neat and tidy appearance over time with minimal trimming.

• Epiphytic Plant: Perfect for attaching to rocks, driftwood, or hardscape; the rhizome should remain above the substrate to avoid rot.

• Low Light Tolerant: Grows well under low to medium light, suitable for low-tech aquariums.

• Hardy and Adaptable: Resilient to a range of water conditions, making it beginner-friendly.

Care Requirements:

• Lighting: Prefers low to moderate lighting; excessive light may encourage algae growth on leaves.

• CO₂: Optional; can support faster growth and healthier leaves but not required.

• Water Parameters: Adapts to a pH of 6.0–7.5 and temperatures between 20–30°C.

• Trimming: Minimal maintenance; remove old or damaged leaves as needed.

Planting Tips:

• Attach to rocks or driftwood using thread, fishing line, or plant glue until the rhizome naturally anchors.

• Ideal for tanks with fish or shrimp, as the sturdy leaves resist grazing.

• Moderate water flow helps keep leaves clean and encourages healthy growth.
