Anubias Petite White Platinum is a breathtaking and extremely rare variety of Anubias barteri var. nana ‘Petite’, known for its delicate, albino white leaves and compact growth habit. Perfect for nano aquariums, high-end aquascapes, and rare plant collectors, this exquisite variety offers stunning visual contrast but requires special care due to its low chlorophyll content. Its rarity, slow growth, and pure platinum appearance make it a prized centerpiece for serious aquarists.
🌿 Albino Platinum-White Leaves:
Features brilliant, white-toned foliage caused by a lack of green pigment (chlorophyll), creating a luminous, elegant appearance.
💧 Extremely Slow-Growing:
Maintains a miniature size with leaves around 0.5–1 inch, ideal for nano aquariums and intricate hardscape designs.
🪨 Attach to Hardscape:
Grows best when securely attached to driftwood, rocks, or decorations. Never bury the rhizome to prevent rot.
🔆 High Care Requirements:
Due to the lack of chlorophyll, this plant struggles with photosynthesis and must be placed in low-light, shaded areas to prevent burning and decline.
🌱 Propagation Through Rhizome Division:
Slowly propagates by carefully dividing healthy sections of the rhizome.
🐠 Perfect For:
Rare plant collectors, luxury nano aquariums, shaded aquascapes, and experienced hobbyists seeking a truly unique aquatic specimen.
Aquascapers seeking a rare, show-stopping aquatic plant that offers refined beauty will find Anubias Petite White Platinum an unmatched choice. Its shimmering white foliage brings a sense of purity and luxury to underwater landscapes. However, due to its lack of green pigment, it requires experienced care: protection from intense lighting, careful placement in shaded areas, and stable, clean water parameters.
Unlike typical green plants that easily photosynthesize, the White Platinum Petite needs extra attention to prevent light stress and maintain its health. For advanced aquarists and collectors, successfully growing this plant is both a rewarding challenge and a bold statement of skill and dedication.
If you’re looking to elevate your aquascape to a truly elite level, Anubias White Platinum Petite is the perfect addition.

Please be aware that our Live Arrival Guarantee is subject to certain conditions. Specifically, the guarantee will not be applicable in cases where the package is marked as 'invalid address', 'undeliverable' or is 'returned to sender.'

Please keep in mind that Live Arrival Guarantee only guarantees that live stocks will be alive upon arrival. We cannot guarantee that you will continue to have success with them.

Even though our plants are very clean, but we can't guarantee they will be 100% pest-free because we cannot be responsible for your aquarium. Please use it at your own risk. We recommended all customers rinse the plants with clean water and quarantine them before use.
However, plants in tissue culture will be 100% free from pests, algae and never have been contacting with any aquarium.
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.
