Planting a whole layout at once? The Anubias Petite Bulk Pack gives you 5 to 50 small rhizome plants in one order — enough to cover a piece of driftwood properly, plant a whole hardscape, or restock a shop, at a lower cost per plant than buying singles.
What You’ll Receive
Healthy Anubias Petite plants cultivated by Aquarium Plants Factory®, available in bulk pack sizes:
5 Plants: Small loose rhizome plants with approx. 6 leaves each
10 Plants: Small loose rhizome plants with approx. 6 leaves each
20 Plants: Small loose rhizome plants with approx. 6 leaves each
50 Plants: Small loose rhizome plants with approx. 6 leaves each
Plants are small in size and ideal for aquascaping placement. Size may vary depending on the season and growing conditions.

Care
- Difficulty — Beginner. One of the hardiest plants in the hobby
- Light — Low to medium. Bright light means algae on slow-turning leaves
- CO₂ — Not required

- Substrate — Not required. Attaches to hardscape
- Growth habit — Amphibious. Also grows emersed

Grower’s Notes
- Buy in bulk for coverage, not for speed. Anubias grows about a leaf a month, so a dense Anubias wall is built by planting many small plants at once rather than waiting for a few to spread. That is exactly what this pack is for.
- Space them across the hardscape rather than clustering. Each plant stays roughly where you put it, so the layout you create on day one is close to the layout you keep.
- Never bury the rhizome. Roots can go into substrate; the rhizome cannot. Buried, it rots — the most common way an Anubias is lost.
- Attach with cyanoacrylate gel or cotton thread. Glue is faster for large numbers; thread rots away once the plant has anchored itself.
Just need one? See the standard Anubias Petite, or the ready-mounted Anubias Petite on Driftwood.

Notes
- Pictures are a sample representation of the species. Live aquarium plants may vary slightly in size, shape, and coloration depending on growing conditions and season. Some plants may transition from emersed growth to submerged growth once introduced to the aquarium, which is a normal process.
- Never release aquarium plants into natural waterways.

What We Guarantee
24-Hour Live Arrival Guarantee — We guarantee that live plants and live aquatic animals will arrive alive. In the rare case of a Dead on Arrival (DOA), you must notify us within 24 hours of the delivery time recorded on the carrier's official tracking page. The guarantee is void after that 24-hour window, as condition can no longer be attributed to transit.
How to Submit a Claim
- Take at least 2 clear, well-lit photos of the affected items in their original, unopened, sealed packaging, plus a photo of the shipping label on the box.
- Email your photos and order number to hello@aquariumplantsfactory.com within 24 hours of delivery.
- Do not photograph plants or animals after they have been unpacked, planted, or introduced to your aquarium — once an item enters your aquarium's ecosystem, it is no longer covered.
Approved claims are resolved with a replacement, store credit, or refund at our discretion, under the terms of our Refund Policy. Each item is eligible for one replacement only — replacements are final and we cannot replace a replacement.
Conditions That Void the Guarantee
- Incorrect or incomplete shipping address (vacant address, missing apartment number, or any issue that prevents delivery)
- Packages marked "invalid address," "undeliverable," refused, or returned to sender
- Packages left unclaimed, held at a carrier facility at the customer's request, or not retrieved promptly after delivery — live goods must be brought indoors and unpacked the day they arrive
- Carrier delays, weather events, or delivery exceptions once the package has left our facility
- Shipments to freight forwarders or package-forwarding services
Providing accurate, complete shipping information and monitoring your tracking are essential to keeping your guarantee valid.
Please note: the Live Arrival Guarantee covers arrival only. We cannot guarantee ongoing success — aquarium environment, water quality, nutrients, temperature, lighting, filtration, and CO2 all affect long-term results.
What We Can't Guarantee
- Pest-free plants (potted & bare-root): Although our plants are grown in our own clean greenhouse, we cannot guarantee they are 100% free of snails, algae, or other hitchhikers. We recommend rinsing and quarantining all plants before adding them to your aquarium. Tissue culture (in vitro) plants are the exception — they are grown in sterile lab conditions, are 100% free of pests, algae, and disease, and have never been in contact with any aquarium.
- Pesticide-free plants: We use homemade, organic pest control in our greenhouse and never use copper-based pesticides, which are toxic to invertebrates such as snails, crabs, and shrimp. However, we cannot guarantee plants are entirely pesticide-free — always rinse and quarantine before use in invertebrate tanks.
- Your aquarium's success: We are not responsible for your aquarium inhabitants, including fish, shrimp, snails, and turtles. Please quarantine all plants before use.
- Growth form: Unless specified, we do not guarantee plants will grow emersed or submersed in your particular setup.
Please review your state's regulations on restricted plants, as we are committed to not shipping plants that are restricted in your area. Do not release any plants into the wild or waterways, as this can harm local ecosystems by introducing invasive species.
Your cooperation in protecting the environment is appreciated. For continuously updated information, refer to the USDA State Noxious Weed list here.
Thank you for your responsible commitment to environmental preservation.
Customers praised these aquarium plants as "crispy fresh" and "seriously SO GREEN," noting excellent packaging and healthy arrival. Most reported thriving growth with established roots. One concern: about half melted for one customer as plants were grown emerged rather than submerged. Overall "awesome value" with generous sizing.
- Crispy fresh plants!
- They always come in beautifully packed with minimal to no melt in my tanks!
- Best deal you can find anywhere guaranteed! Plants was green and packaging was great!

Planted these along 60 other plants in a new aquarium. It has been 10 days and every has been thriving.
M
They look healthy-nice green leaves, no holes or damage. Will definitely order more.
J
Excellent healthy plants. Mid-winter shipment packed well and arrived quickly with no damage. Settled right into the paludarium set up.
D
Ordered a single rhizome. Very nice piece sent that had a second rhizome I was able to cut off and plant separately! 2 for 1. Makes up for the super petites in the same order that turned to mush. Shipping and packaging is always great. Picture is a snapshot of the centerpiece in a newly filled UNS 45. Elephant skin rock and black driftwood with a rock background insert. Other plants in the pic are java fern, mini kayu buce, green wavy buce and brownie purple buce. Petite anubias rhizomes are circled in yellow.

Best deal you can find anywhere guaranteed! Plants was green and packaging was great! Each anubias petite came in its own little bag. 20 for this price is better than any I've found so far. Can't wait to put them on my bonsai driftwood.
J
Crispy fresh plants!
Aquarium Plants Factory does good business and I will be doing more with them in the future.
A
Decent size and already great roots established.

The plants came healthy but only about half survived which is surprising since anubias is pretty hardy. I didn’t know that the plants were grown emerged instead of submerged, that’s probably why they melted. Also, no pest or snail.
D
I’ve ordered a few times now from Aquarium Plants Factory and no matter the plant whether it’s stems, Anubias or Buce they always come in beautifully packed with minimal to no melt in my tanks! I will definitely purchasing from them again to stock my planted tanks and I’ll happily recommend them to friends in the hobby looking to buy plants!! Thank you again!
S
Plants were in great shape. They’re smaller clusters, but it still felt like I got so much and they all looked great.
j
Beautiful plants with plent of leaves, roots and along rhizome. These are really nice. I have tied them on a lond atanding piece of driftwood. Thanks

I have many times ordered plants online, only to receive small sad looking things. Not here!! Even though they say the pictured plant is not what one will receive, it may as well be. This group of plants I received are nothing less than fabulous. They were well packaged, insulated and beautiful. The only suggestion I would have to make things better, at least on a large order like mine was, is that the bags be labelled with the plant name. I think I figured it out but either way no disappointment here.
V
Ordered a couple plants for the first time from the site. Couldn’t be more happy. Shipping was fast and everything arrived in perfect condition. My new go to place.
Thanks
W
Ordered the 10 pack for my new low tech aquarium. All of them were in great shape and gold sized rhizomes. Two thumbs up.
L
These arrived healthy, and I've had them floating in my two gallon mangrove planter for over a week and they're doing well. Sometimes the ghost shrimp swim up to check them out.
G
Plant arrived fast, well packed, healthy and looks nice.
J
I was so impressed when I opened my order, My plants were bright green and looked as if they had just been pulled from the tank. everything looked exactly as it does on the webpage. very little breakage considering how much I ordered. APF you have a customer for life.
J
Tinier than I expected, but healthier than I expected too. So glad I ordered from here instead of getting them from my local pet shop. Plants are seriously their specialty, as you could probably guess from the name of the company. They sent a few extra as well. It seems they always send a bonus plant, bonus snail to keep the customer happy if one arrives damaged.
E
The plants I received were seriously SO GREEN. Very healthy and packaged well. They have been thriving and are the perfect size for my small tank. I would definitely recommend APF to fellow hobbyists.
j
i ordered 20 and got some double ups and 4 or 5 of them were 2 inches long with 15 or more leaves APF has great plants im very pleased with all my orders and plants
R
for my two Aquariums. Perfect size for where I planed on planting them. Thanks for the great service and equally great plants.
S
Arrived healthy. Look great.
D
Excellent plants. Highly recomend
B
Plants come green and healthy. I like them all but they are too small for the price I paid. Overall, plants are awesome, plus very good deals.
C
Beautiful and healthy plants
