Anubias Barteri Nana Paxing

Anubias Barteri Nana Paxing is a refined compact cultivar known for its neat growth habit and lush, rich green color. It shares the Anubias nana leaf form in a tidy, well-organized presentation that makes it an excellent foreground plant for aquascapers who appreciate consistent, predictable results from their plants.

Planting tip: Never bury the rhizome in substrate — Anubias Barteri Nana Paxing should always be attached to driftwood, rock, or other hardscape with the rhizome fully exposed. Use cotton thread or aquarium-safe adhesive to secure it, and the plant will anchor itself naturally over time.

As with all Anubias, Paxing is extremely adaptable and forgiving. It grows well in low lighting, requires no CO₂ supplementation, and thrives in temperatures between 72 and 82°F with a pH range of 6.0 to 7.5. Low CO₂ needs and compact size make it an ideal choice for low-tech tanks and nano aquascapes where simplicity is valued alongside beauty. Regular liquid fertilization maintains health and the lush green color that defines this cultivar.

Anubias Barteri Nana Paxing must be attached to hardscape rather than planted in substrate. The rhizome should remain exposed at all times, secured to driftwood or stone using cotton thread or aquarium-safe adhesive. As the plant establishes itself, it will anchor more securely to its surface.

In the aquascape, Anubias Barteri Nana Paxing is a tidy, precise foreground plant that rewards careful placement on clean, prominent hardscape. Its neat growth habit makes it a useful foil for more dramatically textured or colorful plants, providing visual calm and balance in the foreground. A reliable, quality cultivar for aquascapers who value consistency.
