Anubias Nana Petite (Amazing Aquascaping Plant)
Like Anubias but want the smaller version? Anubias Petite is there for you. Anubias Nana Petite is just like it sounds. It's a smaller, more petite version of Anubias. This variety isn't available as often as I would like it so if you want it- Grab it- because it won't last. NOTE: I have found that Anubias Nana Petite is slightly less hardy then the regular sized Anubias. It is still a hardy plants but probably due to it's smaller size- it isn't as rugged. The leaves on this plant are about half an inch and stay that way. Like most Anubias, it is a slow grower and will take a minute to attach to a driftwood or rock. Remember folks. You can plant the roots of Anubias down into the substrate but never the Rhizome.
NOTE: Photos labeled "XL BARE ROOT" is what we are currently selling when you purchase the XL BARE ROOT variety.
Care Scale of 1-10: ( 1- it can grow in your toilet- 10 being nearly impossible)
Difficulty: I give Anubias Nana Petite a 2. It takes just a little more care light and nurturing to make sure this little guy makes his way to maturity. Enjoys harder water. (Don't over think this)
Lighting: Prefers a Moderate to High light but handles the low light with that Hardy Anubias structure.
Don't forget to grab our Growth Juice and Iron Supplements. (Anubias likes above average amounts of iron :)
Customer Reviews
This was delivered pretty quickly and was in very good shape. I would like for it to have been a little bit bigger, it was in my opinion very small selection, it was kind of hard to place/anchor due to its small size.
I placed my order for some anubias nana petite on Dec 31, 2025 & received my order Jan 7, 2026. Great delivery time considering the holidays! I found Dustin on Facebook, really enjoyed his videos, and his funny anecdotes. He helped me pick out what I needed for my 10 gal betta tank. I'm also working on a 75 gal tank, hoping to start keeping discus. It will be interesting to see what kind of plants will work in this tank. I highly recommend Dustin's Fish Tanks. Great people, great advice! They are in Kentucky and I support US based businesses!
