Grower’s Notes
- Mounting is the job you are skipping. Attaching Anubias yourself means glue or thread and several weeks before it grips. This arrives done, and can be moved around the tank freely while you settle on a layout.
- The driftwood is boil-treated, which cuts the tannin release that would otherwise tint the water brown in the first weeks.
- Sits on the substrate rather than in it. Don't bury the wood or press the rhizome down — a buried rhizome rots.
- Safe with shrimp and fish, and the wood itself becomes a grazing surface as biofilm develops on it.
- Each piece is a different shape, so two ordered together will not match. That is worth knowing if you are building a symmetrical layout.
Prefer a stone-based option? See Anubias Petite on Lava Rock for the same plant with a different texture. Mounting it yourself instead? See the standard Anubias Petite or the Bulk Pack.

Customers said this aquatic plant arrives "healthy and green" and is "perfect for nano tanks." While most praised its hardy nature and vibrant appearance, several noted it's "very small" and "overpriced." Some experienced melting during acclimation, though most recovered. A few reported plants rotting or dying quickly. Praised for easy care and pre-attached driftwood.
- Great plant, very nice, no need to tie down as it comes in a piece of wood
- Bright green and healthy and it's already growing a new leaf after only a week in my tank!
- Arrived healthy and are currently thriving in their new home. Great little plants.

Items come super small, and have to pay for return shipment, way over price. Wouldn't leave review if I didn't have to pay for return shipping. DO NOT BUY, YOU WILL BE DISAPPOINTED.
O
Kind of small but i love it. Packaged nicely. Good addition to my fish tank. I bought A pleco and learned they need driftwood for more fiber so this doubles as wood my pleco can nibble on plus anubias plants are very hardy. Worth the buy!
B
Arrived fast and in perfect condition! It's been in my tank for about a month now. Didn't come with any hitchhikers, thankfully.
C
Beautiful specimen. I did re-planted on another piece of driftwood. It's been doing great. Never had a problem with it.
K
Beautiful plant, was packaged nicely. Just what I wanted. It is very small, make sure you look at the dimensions, but it can easily fit anywhere in your tank.
d
Just got this delivered to my mail box. It is in perfect condition, a bright, vibrant live plant on a piece of driftwood. It'll be perfect for the middle of my 5 gallon tank that'll be set up tomorrow, on Christmas Eve. Such a beautiful addition. I'll always order live tank plants from this company from now on & suggest all my friends & family to do the same.
D
The packaging is poor and clumsy. It needs filler to keep it from moving around in the box. Mine were in perfect condition and there's been no melting. I have 2 in this tank and 1 in my 15g. They're a great plant for small spaces that need a little live plant pop! Ya know...I recommend, and I order a TON if aquarium and aquarium related products like fish/snails/shrimp/plants/etc off amazon, and a lot of other sellers EDIT: I am starting to see some melt on one of them, but the others are still doing great and it's been about 2 weeks now since I got them. I know melt just happens sometimes. It's happening much worse on the ones I've got attached to lava rock.
e
It was fast delivery, packed very well. The plant was so alive and cute. In great shape…fit in the small tank perfectly
G
Perfect size for my Betta tank! Beautiful green foliage. Very pleased.
M
This plant has been thriving so well! And not to mention it is so adorable. I will be purchasing more in the figure from the same seller.
B
Such a beautiful little plant for my 3 gallon. Came very green! Arrived 3 days after shipping. I would recommend this site for sure and will definitely do buisness with them again. Very pleased!
B
I knew they were to be small but not this tiny. I was shocked. Othe than that. The packaging was good. I liked the elephant bag. It was cute and how secure the plant came in the bubble package. Also the plant looks really healthy and nice, that's what matters. I just think its overpriced for the tiny plant.
L
Both plants looked good upon arrival but even with proper acclimation completely died off within 5 days in the tank. Contacted seller but basically was told that they guarantee plants being alive for 24 hours after recieved. Haven't heard from them again. Very disappointed, don't think will ever buy any aquarium plants off the internet ever again.
J
I needed a new plant for my 2 1/2 gallon tank and my beloved, but aging, betta fish. This arrived a little squished but perked right up in a few days and now looks beautiful. It’s the perfect small size for my tank.
P
My fish likes it , it looks beautiful in the tank too. More than what I expected
A
My Platys LOVE this tiny plant! Buying them one more! Bought this to allow a safe hiding place from the one rambunctious dumbo guppy and my lil babies immediately did so! So cute! Worked like a charm! Did well in quarantine tank too!
K
These little guys are gorgeous and healthy. They look great in my Axolotl tank!
L
It has been growing since it arrived! The wood does flake off into the water over time.
M
Absolutely love my little ANUBIAS PETITE ON DRIFTWOOD. Came perfect. Just like the picture showed. Even has new growth already!!!
D
Arrived alive and healthy. The packaging didn't seem the best, but the plant was perfectly intact and nice looking, so it works well enough I'd say. It's been in the aquarium for several weeks now and still looks vibrant and happy. My little albino plecos seem to like it. Livens up the aquarium, for sure. I would certainly buy from this shop again.
A
Arrived fast and is one happy plant! (Please keep in mind the weather when ordering live plants-dont want them freezing or getting roasted!) Roughly 3 inches long. Seems pest free! I would always recommend to sanitize and quarantine new plants before introducing them to your aquarium.
D
The plants arrived on time as promised and looks amazing.
s
The TINY plant arrived in good shape. I just couldn't believe how tiny it was., for that price! You see the pretty website pictures and you can't translate in your mind how small it will be. Very plain "driftwood". I thought the local fish store was expensive, but their plant is 4 or 5 times that big.I would not buy again.
C
Is it necessary to take the plant out and boil the driftwood? My tank is getting cloudy.
No need, this wood is pre-treated and release only a small amount of tanins overtime.
s
Hi, so is this plant safe for turtle? Thank you
Yes, but i'm big turtle may eat the plant
