Anubias Nana Bonsai is another species in the Anubias family. It falls between Anubias Nana Petite and Anubias Nana in terms of sizing. Just like the rest of the Anubias species, it's a great choice for beginners due to its easy care and overall hardiness. This plant is almost indestructible in any planted aquarium tank and can survive in a wide range of environments. However, if presented with optimal conditions, this plant will thrive and results will be rewarding. Best when used as a mid-ground plant attached to stones or wood as an accent or centerpiece depending on tank size. We recommend Anubias Nana Bonsai for any size aquarium.

It's a flowering aquatic plant that grows best when the rhizome is attached to hardscape material such as wood or stone. Regular fertilization is favorable and low to medium lighting is sufficient as high lighting will promote the growth of algae on its leaves. CO2 is not required but promotes faster growth and robust leaves. 

Propagation is straightforward; simply cut or pull apart rhizomes to be reattached.
