Coconuts are becoming increasingly popular amongst aquarium enthusiasts both for their practicality and aesthetics.

Anubias barteri nana is one of the easiest plants to grow which is why we paired it with our sustainable coconut. It originates from Cameroon and will reach 5-10 cm height. The rhizome will be 10-15 cm or more. It grows slowly, and the leaves survive for several years. It flowers frequently under water. It is not eaten by herbivorous fish. Anubias barteri var. nana is a small, attractive plant which thrives in all conditions.
