Anubias barteri var. nana 'Bonsai'

The tiny Anubias that fits just about anywhere.

Anubias 'Bonsai' takes everything people love about regular Anubias nana and packs it into a much smaller plant. Compact leaves, tidy growth, and all the toughness you'd expect from an Anubias.

Perfect when you want the Anubias look without taking over half the hardscape.

🌿 Why you want it

• Small, compact leaves perfect for detailed aquascapes
• Extremely hardy and beginner-friendly
• Attaches easily to wood and rock
• Great for nano tanks and smaller hardscape details

🤏 The little one

Don't let the size fool you.

Anubias 'Bonsai' might stay small, but it brings plenty of character. It's especially useful for those little gaps and awkward spots where normal Anubias can look a bit too chunky.

📍 Where it fits

• Best in the foreground, midground, or attached to smaller pieces of hardscape.
• Looks especially good tucked into rockwork, along driftwood, or grouped into small clusters.

💡 Care

• Light: low to medium
• CO₂: not required
• Growth: slow
• Propagation: divide the rhizome

💧 Water tolerance

Happy in soft or hard water, low tech or high tech setups, and tolerant of a wide range of conditions.

💬 TBC take

Small, ridiculously useful, and tough enough that you can stick it somewhere and mostly forget about it.
