Tropica In Vitro Anubias barteri 'Mini Coin'

100% sterile laboratory aquarium plants in sealed cups.

Anubias 'Mini Coin' is a variety of Anubias barteri that was found at the aquarium nursery Tropica in Denmark.

This plant is one of the smallest Anubias varieties; each leaf is smaller than a small fingernail. It is just as easy to care for as its parent species and does not like bright light.

Anubias 'Mini Coin' thrives best on rocks and tree roots in the aquarium. If the plant is planted in the substrate, the creeping stem (rhizome) must not be covered, as this can lead to rot and the plant's death. Anubias 'Mini Coin' branches easily and forms a dense cushion of small, round, deep green leaves.

If the plant becomes too dense, it can be carefully divided and the new plants placed elsewhere in the aquarium. It is ideally suited for nano aquariums, but can also enhance the small details in larger aquariums.
