Anubias Nana "Golden Coin" (also known as Coin Leaf) is a hardy, low-maintenance aquatic epiphyte distinguished by unique, nearly circular coin-shaped leaves. Propagated via laboratory tissue culture (in vitro), it guarantees a 100% pest-, snail-, and algae-free start for fresh aquascapes and terrariums.
Leaves:
Broad, rounded, and circular like small coins, measuring roughly 1.5 to 2.5 inches across.
Growth Rate:
Slow to very slow.
Size:
Compact mid-ground height, typically staying around 2 to 4 inches tall.
Color:
Vibrant dark green to lighter golden-chartreuse hues, depending on lighting intensity.
Placement:
Best attached to driftwood, rocks, or hardscape using thread or glue rather than buried.
Rhizome Care:
The thick horizontal stem (rhizome) must remain exposed above the substrate or gravel to prevent rotting.
Lighting:
Low to moderate; excessive light can trigger algae growth on its slow-growing leaves.
CO2 and Fertilizers:
Not strictly necessary, though regular light nutrient dosing can optimize health.
Tissue Culture Prep:
Rinse the sterile nutrient gel entirely off the roots under clean tap water before placing it into the aquarium.
