About this item
Anubias Barteri | Premium Tissue Culture Aquatic Plant
The Timeless Essential for Every Aquascape
Anubias Barteri is the "big brother" of the classic Anubias Nana. Renowned for its heart-shaped, vibrant green leaves and elegant, elongated stems, this plant is a staple for both beginners and professional aquascapers. Whether you're building a lush tropical aquarium or a humid terrarium, Anubias Barteri offers unmatched hardiness and aesthetic appeal.
✨ Why Choose Our Tissue Culture (In-Vitro) Plants?
Stop worrying about unwanted "hitchhikers." Our Anubias Barteri is laboratory-grown in a sterile environment, ensuring:
-
100% Pest-Free: No snails, no duckweed, and no parasites.
-
Algae-Free: Guaranteed clean, healthy, and ready to thrive.
-
Higher Yield: Each cup contains multiple plantlets, giving you more "green" for your money.
-
Easy Transition: Lab-grown plants are younger and adapt faster to your water parameters.
🌿 Key Features & Growth Habit
-
Placement: Ideal for Mid-ground or Background. Leaves can grow up to 3 inches long, creating a lush, dense look.
-
Growth Style: This is an Epiphyte. It grows best when attached to driftwood, rocks, or hardscape.
-
Versatility: Can be grown fully submerged or emersed (perfect for Paludariums!).
-
Durability: Thick, waxy leaves make it naturally resistant to herbivorous fish (like Goldfish or Cichlids).

🛠 How to Plant (Step-by-Step)
-
Prep: Remove the plant from the cup and gently wash away the nutrient gel under lukewarm water.
-
Separate: You can plant it as one large clump or separate it into smaller portions.
-
Attach: Use aquarium-safe glue or thread to secure it to your hardscape.
-
⚠️ Pro Tip: Do NOT bury the rhizome in the substrate. If the thick horizontal stem is buried, the plant will eventually rot and die.

Top Mentions
Beautiful addition to my reef!
The fish arrived in perfect condition. Packaging was triple insulated with heat packs. Acclimation was smooth and it was eating frozen mysis within 2 hours of introduction. AquaEditorial never disappoints.
Great value for the price
Exactly as described. Fast shipping and very well packed.
Good but picky eater
Beautiful specimen, arrived healthy. Takes a while to adjust to new food but eventually started eating pellets. Great addition to my South American cichlid tank.
FAQs
What temperature should I keep the tank at for this fish?
Great question! We recommend maintaining a water temperature of 82–86°F (28–30°C). Discus are tropical fish and thrive in warm, stable water conditions. A reliable heater with a thermostat is essential.
Can I keep this with other fish in a community tank?
Yes! Discus are peaceful and social. They do best with calm tank mates like Cardinal Tetras, Rummy Nose Tetras, and Corydoras Catfish. Avoid aggressive or fast-moving fish that may stress them.
What size tank do I need for a small group?
We recommend a minimum of 55 gallons for a small group of discus. They need spacious aquariums with open swimming areas, live plants, driftwood, and gentle filtration.
What should I feed them?
Discus are omnivores and benefit from a varied diet. We recommend high-quality discus pellets, frozen bloodworms, brine shrimp, and beef heart mixes. A varied diet helps maintain vibrant coloration.
Do you guarantee live arrival?
Absolutely! All live fish are shipped with our 100% Live Arrival Guarantee. If there are any issues upon delivery, contact us within 2 hours with photos and we'll make it right.
