Description
Anubias nana Mini, the mini me of Anubias Nana, is here to add a touch of cuteness to your aquarium! This little guy might be small, but don't underestimate its impact. The leaves, with a diameter of 10-20mm, have a slightly more pointed shape than their larger counterpart, giving it a unique look that'll have all your fish friends doing double takes.
But, let's not forget, this plant is not just a pretty face. Growing Anubias nana Mini is as easy as pie, just tie it to a piece of wood or a rock, and voila! You've got yourself a thriving aquatic garden. Just one piece of advice, don't try planting it in the substrate, or you'll find yourself with a rotting plant, and that's no good for anyone.
The beauty of Anubias nana Mini is that it's the perfect size for smaller aquariums. It's not always about the size, and in this case, the small stature only adds to its charm. And the best part? It's suitable for discus tanks too. If you're looking for a plant that'll make your discus feel like royalty, then look no further.
In conclusion, Anubias Nana Mini is a small but mighty plant that'll bring a touch of elegance and beauty to your planted aquarium.

Is Anubias nana Mini suitable for beginners?
Yes. Anubias nana Mini is a very beginner-friendly aquarium plant because it is slow growing, hardy and does not need strong lighting or CO2 injection.
How do I plant Anubias nana Mini?
Anubias nana Mini should be attached to wood, rock or aquarium décor rather than buried deeply in the substrate. The rhizome must stay above the substrate or it may rot.
Does Anubias nana Mini need CO2?
No. Anubias nana Mini grows well in low-tech aquariums without added CO2. CO2 can help growth, but it is not required.
Is Anubias nana Mini good for low light aquariums?
Yes. Anubias nana Mini is well suited to low and medium light aquariums. Avoid very intense light, as the slow-growing leaves can attract algae.
How big does Anubias nana Mini grow?
Anubias nana Mini stays compact compared with larger Anubias varieties, making it ideal for foreground areas, nano aquariums and attaching to small pieces of wood or rock.
Can Anubias nana Mini be used with shrimp and fish?
Yes. Anubias nana Mini is safe for freshwater shrimp, snails and fish. Its tough leaves also make it a good choice for aquariums with active fish.
Why are the leaves on my Anubias nana Mini getting algae?
Anubias grows slowly, so algae can appear on the leaves if lighting is too strong or left on for too long. Reduce the lighting period, improve water flow and keep nutrients balanced.
Does Anubias nana Mini need fertiliser?
Anubias nana Mini benefits from a good liquid aquarium plant fertiliser because it takes nutrients mainly from the water column. Regular fertilising helps support healthy, steady growth.
