Plant Profile

Common Name: Anubias Nana Petite White

If you're looking for a plant that makes fellow aquascapers stop and stare, Anubias Nana Petite White is the pick! Born from a rare mutation, this tiny showstopper takes the beloved micro-footprint of standard Anubias Nana Petite and spices it up with spectacular white-to-cream coloration. Unlike fully ghostly variants like Snow White, this variety rocks a gorgeous marbled mix of white and deep green pattern work across its foliage, meaning every single new leaf unfurls with its own unique personality.

Key Features & Benefits

  • Striking white and green variegated pattern work provides unmatched color contrast in nano tanks and detailed hardscape scapes.
  • Compact dwarf scale stays wonderfully small (2 to 5 inches), making it an ideal foreground centerpiece or focal accent.

    Care Tips & Preparation

    • Carefully remove the plant from its pot and clear away all rockwool from the roots. For a deep dive on prepping potted 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.
    • Unlike its shade-loving green relatives, this variegated beauty lacks abundant chlorophyll and requires medium to high lighting (alongside CO2 injection) to thrive, flourish, and hold its snowy coloration.
    • Maintain stable water parameters and avoid sudden environmental shifts to ensure your new greenery acclimates smoothly without shedding leaves.
    • Provide optional carbon dioxide injection to achieve faster growth and more robust leaves.
