Anubias Nangi – SI

Anubias Nangi is a relatively unknown species of Anubias in the aquarium hobby. Featuring the signature Anubias green tone, Anubias Nangi is a smaller species with the same robust, hardy nature and tough leaves.

Like all Anubias, Anubias Nangi is fairly easy to care for and will adapt well to a wide range of aquarium tank parameters and is generally hardy and comparable in care to other Anubias, Bucephalandra, Cryptocoryne and aquatic fern species. Overall, Anubias Nangi is a great aquatic plant choice to add to any planted aquarium tank or Anubias enthusiast’s collection and will give a beautiful pop of contrast against alternative aquatic plant species and aquarium tank hardscape.

Another great feature is its ability to thrive in both aquariums and terrarium-like setups. Anubias Nangi is a flowering aquatic plant that grows best when the rhizome is attached to hardscape material such as aquarium driftwood or aquascaping stone. Propagation is straightforward; simply cut or pull apart rhizomes to be reattached. It benefits from consistent fertilization but light requirements are minimal as its leaves are susceptible to algae growth when placed under high lighting. CO2 injection is optional but can promote faster growth and robust leaves when used.
