About the species

Anubia's 'Mini Coin' is a variation of Anubia's Barteri. The plant is one of the very smallest Anubias, each leaf smaller than a small fingernail. It is as easy to grow as its parent and does not like bright light. Anubias 'Mini Coin' thrives best attached to rocks and tree roots in the aquarium.

If planted in the substrate, the creeping stem (rhizome) must not be covered, as this can cause the plant to rot and die. 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 ideal for use in nano aquariums, but can also contribute to small details in a larger aquarium.
