Anubias Petite on Lava Rock

Anubias Petite on Rock is a compact, low-maintenance aquarium plant securely attached to a natural dark lava stone using aquarium-safe black cotton thread. Featuring tiny, deep green leaves and a slow-growing, hardy nature, Anubias barteri var. nana ‘Petite’ is a favorite among aquascapers for foreground accents and nano tanks.

Each rock is approximately 1 inch in size and hand-selected for its dark, porous texture that blends seamlessly into aquascapes. The black cotton thread gently holds the rhizome in place while allowing roots to naturally anchor over time—no gluing or planting required.
