Common Name: Anubias Mini Coin
Similar to other Anubias, Anubias Mini Coin can be grown in aquariums or terrariums in both submerged and emersed forms. Anubias are flowering plants that grow well when attached to hard surfaces such as driftwood or porous stones. Most Anubias are loved for their hardy nature, lower light requirements and overall easy care. CO2 is not necessary but can promote faster growth and more robust leaves. Since it’s a slow grower, the leaves are susceptible to algae growth if placed under high lighting.
Propagation is easy, cut apart the rhizomes and replant. Make sure to keep the rhizomes above your substrate or the plant can begin to rot.
Notes:
- Tissue culture plants are grown in vitro from a state of the art laboratory specialized in propagating aquatic plants. They provide the best option for those who want to ensure that absolutely zero unwanted pests are introduced into the aquarium.
- Remove tissue culture gel before planting. Simply wash the gel away or soak the plant in water and squeeze the gel off with your fingers.
- Do not make drastic changes to the aquarium. Unstable parameters will result in melt and rotting of the aquarium plant.
- These epiphytes can be planted above the substrate or attached to hardscape.
- Burying the rhizome, will cause the plant to melt and die
