A. Nancon On Wood
Anubias 'Nancon'
Hardy rhizome plant that thrives in low to medium light. Attach to driftwood, rock, or hardscape — never bury the rhizome, as burying causes rot. Tolerates pH 6.0–8.0 and 68–82°F. Slow growing, virtually indestructible, and one of the most beginner-friendly aquarium plants. Pre-attached to natural driftwood — ready to drop into your tank.
