Anubias barteri var. nana ‘Paxing’ – Compact Deep-Green Anubias for Freshwater Aquariums

Anubias barteri var. nana ‘Paxing’ is a stunning, compact cultivar of the classic Anubias nana, prized for its deep emerald-green leaves and neat, uniform growth. Originating from West Africa, this hardy plant brings a touch of sophistication and tranquility to any aquascape. Its slightly elongated, oval leaves and shorter stature make it perfect for nano tanks, foreground accents, or hardscape detailing on rocks and driftwood.

This variety thrives in low to moderate lighting and grows best when attached to hardscape—such as driftwood, stones, or decorations—using thread, glue, or wire. The rhizome should never be buried in substrate to prevent rot. Like all Anubias, it’s extremely hardy, adaptable to a wide range of water parameters, and tolerant of shaded environments. Anubias ‘Paxing’ grows slowly but steadily, forming lush, compact clusters ideal for foreground to midground placement.
