tolerance, and effortless easy care that

memorable in any planted tank layout.

What is Anubias Gold Aquarium Plant?

Anubias Gold is a cultivated colour variety
of Anubias that produces its characteristic
warm golden yellow-green leaves rather than
the standard deep dark green of classic
Anubias varieties. Like all Anubias species
it is native to tropical West Africa where
it grows in the shaded humid environments
of tropical forest streams — explaining
its remarkable tolerance for low light
conditions in the aquarium.

In the aquarium this anubias gold aquarium
plant grows as an epiphyte attached to
driftwood and rocks — growing from a
horizontal rhizome that anchors to hard
surfaces using fine root-like structures.
It shares the slow but steady growth rate
characteristic of all Anubias species —
producing new golden leaves at a rate of
approximately one to two per month under
typical aquarium conditions.

How to Plant Anubias Gold

Attach this anubias gold aquarium plant to
driftwood or rock using cotton thread, fishing
line, or super glue gel. Never bury the rhizome
in substrate — always keep it exposed and
attached to a hard surface at all times.
The golden colouration is most vivid under
moderate lighting — very low light may cause
the leaves to appear more pale green than gold.
