Anubias Pinto

Anubias Pinto is a decorative variety of Anubias known for its striking, variegated leaves. Each leaf displays a mix of deep green and creamy white speckles, giving the plant a unique, patterned appearance reminiscent of exotic foliage. It grows from a compact rhizome, producing medium to large leaves that form dense, bush-like clusters, ideal for midground or accent placement in aquascapes.

This hardy plant thrives under low to moderate light and adapts well to a wide range of water conditions, making it suitable for both beginners and experienced aquarists. Its slow-growing nature ensures that it remains tidy and visually appealing without requiring constant maintenance. Like all Anubias species, Pinto should never be buried in substrate; instead, it naturally attaches to rocks, driftwood, or other hardscape features, allowing flexible and creative tank designs.

Care Requirements:

Lighting: Low to moderate; indirect or shaded light to minimize algae

Temperature: 22–28 °C (72–82 °F)

pH Range: 6.0–7.5

CO₂: Optional; improves growth but not necessary

Propagation: Rhizome division; best when plant is well established

Anubias Pinto is perfect as a midground feature or accent plant, providing striking contrast in lush aquascapes. Its patterned leaves create texture and visual depth, making it a highly sought-after addition for hobbyists looking to elevate the aesthetics of their aquarium.
