The Anubias sp. "Petite" is a mutation that appeared during cultivation at the Oriental Aquarium nursery in Singapore.

It has a height of less than 5 cm, very small leaves, and a rhizome of 5-10 cm or more from which the leaves will grow. It branches well and creates dense clusters. It has no special requirements like other Anubias and does not appreciate high light intensity.

It is more decorative when attached to stones or roots and should be secured with fishing line until it holds. If planted at the bottom, do not cover the rhizome as this may cause the plant to rot and die. It is an ideal plant for tiny landscapes in small aquariums but will attract attention even in larger tanks.
