Plant Profile

If you're looking to give your aquascape a frosty makeover, Anubias Nana Snow White is the plant. This extremely rare, highly sought-after cultivar flips the script on classic green aquatic foliage with stunning, creamy-white to pale alabaster leaves. Compact and dwarf-sized, it acts as a glowing beacon in nano tanks or midground layouts, popping with contrast against dark lava rocks, rich driftwood, and 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.

This listing is available in both small and regular portions. Small portions include a single plant, and regular cups contain 3-5 individual plants.

Key Features & Benefits

  • Striking, snowy-white foliage creates an unmatched, high-contrast focal point.
  • Compact, dwarf footprint makes it ideal for nano aquascapes, intricate hardscape detailing, and high-end collector displays.
  • The sterile laboratory environment guarantees your new plant arrives completely free of pests.

Care & Planting Instructions

  • Remove the plantlets from the cup and rinse away the sterile nutrient gel under lukewarm, dechlorinated water.
  • Attach to hardscape using aquarium‑safe glue or thread; keep the rhizome above substrate to prevent rot.
  • 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 conditions to support smooth acclimation and reduce leaf loss.
  • Master the planting process by reading a beginner's guide to tissue culture plants to prevent your delicate new plantlets from melting or floating away.

Good looking plant

"Received the tissue culture plants in good condition. But the plants looked small and limp in the cup. Took them out and rinsed them off and they looked amazing, fresh and sturdy with white and light green color. A good looking Anubias plant."

Q&A

What is the difference between the small cup and the regular cup? I assumed, based on the pictures, that the regular cup included more little plants, but my local fish store swears this isn't the case and that they order from your website, so I figured I would just ask you directly to clear up my confusion.
The regular cup includes 4-5 portions and the small cup includes 1 portion. We are an online retailer only and do not provide wholesale to brick and mortar stores, so we believe there might be some miscommunication there! Hope this helps (:
I've purchased both the small and regular cups of these TC plants, and some leaves have grown to be bigger than a normal, submersed anubias "snow white." You also list this plant as anubias marble which is a different plant, so which is it? Marble or snow white?
We can see how the listing would be confusing, and have updated it to be more clear. Thank you for bringing this to our attention. The tissue culture on this listing is Anubias Nana Snow White.
