Tissue Culture Anubias Barteri 'Gigantea'

Tissue cultures are specially grown plants for those who do not want to introduce any pests of any kind to their aquarium. These are grown in specialty labs with zero possibility of algae, snails or any other undesirables, Guaranteed.

 An excellent, easy, beginner little plant.

Anubias Barteri is very similar to Anubias nana, or regular Barteri but with slightly longer stems. It reproduces through lateral nodes, and has glossy thick leaves that almost look fake.

Slow growing, but you'd eventually be able to break off sections for a new plant. 

Looking for the better- established potted Barteri? Perhaps a larger, non TC, Mother version?

As an epiphyte, Anubias should not be completely buried in the substrate, as it will rot. Simply anchor a few roots in, no more than a quarter inch deep. These are also great for gluing to driftwood and rocks!

Anubias are hardy and slow-growing. Perfect for tough livestock such as goldfish and certain cichlids. Tolerates lower light, and is pretty difficult to kill in my opinion!

One thing to note: As Anubias are slow growers, algae growth can be a concern. Just keep an eye on your parameters, and put your lights on a little plug-in timer. Six hours of light is plenty.

Growing requirements:

• 65-80 Degrees Fahrenheit
• Ph 6-8
• Low to Medium light intensity.
• Slow growth speed
