Anubias Gold Coin Live Plant Bunched
Anubias Gold Coin is a broad-leaved aquatic plant known for its thick, leathery leaves and robust growth.
The genus Anubias includes several species and varieties, distinguished by differences in leaf shape and appearance. Caring methods are very similar across varieties.
Anubias produces roots in the form of a creeping rhizome. It thrives when attached to rocks, driftwood, or other aquarium decorations. The roots and rhizome should not be buried in substrate.
It may flower above the water line, and leaves can develop an algae coating if over-fertilized. Due to its durable leaves, Anubias is well-suited for tanks housing cichlids or other fish that may not typically thrive in planted environments.

Easy to attach and stays healthy even in a busy tank with active cichlids. The leaves are thick and don’t get damaged easily. I’ve had it for three months and it’s still thriving.

Grew well in my midground area without needing extra lighting. Just attached it to a piece of driftwood and it’s been stable since installation. A good choice for beginners.

The plant has held up well in a community tank with aggressive fish. The leaves are durable and don’t get eaten or torn. I appreciate that it doesn’t need frequent maintenance.

It arrived in good condition and attached easily. I noticed a bit of algae on the leaves after a few weeks, which I think was due to over-fertilizing. Otherwise, it’s fine.
