Anubias Nana Golden Tissue Culture

Plant Profile

Common Name: Anubias Nana Golden

Anubias Nana Golden is the vibrant, chartreuse sibling of the classic Anubias Nana, and it is ready to bring a major golden hour glow-up to your tank. If your current layout is looking a bit too uniformly dark and you are searching for a way to make your hardscape pop, this eye-catching variant is here to help you strike gold. Its bright yellow-green foliage creates a stunning high-contrast focal point when nestled against dark lava rocks, shadowy driftwood, or deep green mosses.

By choosing the Tissue Culture version of this plant, you are guaranteed a 100% pest-free, algae-free, and pesticide-free start for your aquarium. These plants are grown in-vitro in a sterile laboratory setting, ensuring no unwanted snails or hitchhikers enter your system. While these plantlets start smaller and require more time to mature, they offer the cleanest and most reliable method for establishing a healthy colony in planted tanks.

Key Features & Benefits

• The strikingly bright yellow-green leaves offer an extraordinary color contrast that instantly illuminates dark corners and shadowy hardscape gaps.
• Its remarkably hardy nature makes it one of the easiest golden-hued plants in the entire hobby, delivering high visual reward without high-tech demands.
• The sterile laboratory environment guarantees your new plant arrives completely free of pests.

Care Tips & Preparation

• Carefully remove the plantlets from the cup and rinse away the sterile nutrient gel under lukewarm, dechlorinated water before mounting. For instructions on how to properly plant tissue culture aquarium plants, click here.
• Secure the plant directly to your chosen hardscape elements using aquarium-safe glue or thread. Avoid burying the horizontal stem in gravel or soil because restricting water flow around the rhizome will cause the plant to melt, rot, and die.
• Maintain stable water parameters and avoid sudden environmental shifts to ensure your new greenery acclimates smoothly without shedding leaves.
• Position the plant away from intense, direct light and ensure healthy water flow to prevent slow-growing leaves from collecting unwanted spot algae.
• Provide low to moderate lighting and optional carbon dioxide injection to achieve faster growth and more robust leaves, though it will happily thrive without high-tech setups.
