The Nana Anubias Tropica is a striking variant of Anubias barteri var. nana, loved for its compact growth and rich green leaves. This plant is perfect for aquascapers of all levels, thriving in low to moderate lighting and requiring minimal maintenance. Its slow-growing nature and robust adaptability make it a favorite for creating lush, natural aquascapes in both small and large tanks.

- Resilient and Adaptable: Thrives in a variety of water conditions and setups.
- Shrimp and Snail-Friendly: Offers a natural grazing spot and shelter for invertebrates.
- Low-Maintenance: Requires minimal care, perfect for beginners or busy aquascapers.

Pro Tips:
- Rhizome Awareness: Keep the rhizome above the substrate to prevent rot; attaching it to rocks or driftwood is highly recommended.
- Prune for Aesthetics: Remove any old or yellowing leaves to maintain its vibrant look.
- Algae Control: Gently clean algae from leaves, or let algae-eating tank mates assist.
- Fertilize Sparingly: Liquid fertilizers can support growth but aren’t required for this hardy plant.
- Flow Matters: Place in areas with gentle water flow to reduce debris buildup and promote biofilm for grazing invertebrates.

Shipping Schedule for this service
Current Handling Time:
1-9 business days
Here at Aquatic Arts, we consider the welfare of the live animals we are shipping to be of the foremost importance. This process is much more involved than simply creating a shipping label and affixing it to a box. Depending on the order, it takes from 4 to 7 people to complete this process properly. We check the weather conditions here where they fly out of the Indianapolis UPS facility and the destination for each shipment. We start early each morning and go through a multi-step process to have the day's shipments prepared in time for the UPS pickup. The volume of orders in our system also affects the processing time. Therefore our stated handling time is 1-9 business days.
Shipping Rate
Pricing is by size of package needed to fill entire order and distance it must travel. It will be calculated at checkout.
