S — Starter Cutting ₹90: One healthy rhizome cutting with up to 5 leaves. The classic way to start: attach it to driftwood or rock and watch it grow into a centerpiece over time. Perfect for nano tanks, tight budgets, and aquascapers who enjoy growing their plant from day one. Every cutting is taken from our own mother plants and shipped with the rhizome intact — that's where all new growth comes from.

Frequently Asked Questions

What exactly do I get with the Small size?

One healthy anubias rhizome cutting with up to 5 leaves, roots trimmed and ready to attach. It's a young plant, not a fragment — the rhizome is always intact.

Is the XL really worth ₹250?

The XL is a mother plant with 20+ leaves that took months to raise. Bought as separate cuttings, the same plant mass would cost ₹400–₹500. If you want instant impact or plan to propagate, it's our best value.

Will the Small grow as big as the XL?

Yes. Same species, same genetics — the XL is just further along. With stable water and moderate light, an S typically reaches M size in 3–6 months (anubias is a slow, steady grower).

Can I split the L or XL into multiple plants?

Yes. Both have multiple rhizome growing points. Cut the rhizome between growth points with clean scissors and each piece grows independently — it's how we propagate them ourselves.

How do you make sure I get the size I paid for?

Every order is graded against a leaf-count checklist at packing and photographed before it ships. If your plant arrives below the promised grade, send us the unboxing photo and we replace or refund it — same as our live-arrival guarantee.

Floating Plants

HomeProductsFloating Plants

Floating plants sit at or on the surface, giving shade, cover for fry and shrimp, and fast nutrient export since they draw directly from the water column. See our floating plants guide for a full rundown of benefits and downsides. Our range covers classic free-floaters — Duckweed, Amazon Frogbit and Water Lettuce — the rosette-forming Ludwigia Sedioides (Water Mosaic), and trailing Brazilian Pennywort, which can be left to float or anchored in substrate. Red Water Lily (Nymphaea rubra) is the exception here: it’s a substrate-rooted bulb that sends leaves up to float on the surface, rather than a true free-floater. Choose based on coverage and control: Duckweed spreads fastest and is hardest to fully remove once established, so use it only if you want aggressive nutrient export or fry protection; Frogbit and Water Lettuce are larger and much easier to thin out by hand; Pennywort suits tall tanks or a paludarium transition; and Water Mosaic and Red Water Lily are more ornamental centrepieces for calmer water. All floaters need strong light reaching the surface, since anything shading them from above will stunt growth, and they generally do best in nutrient-rich water where they help outcompete algae. Thin them out regularly — left unchecked, a full surface layer will shade out everything growing underneath. Buying tip: order floating plants only if you’re prepared to thin them regularly, especially Duckweed; a floating ring or corner divider makes it easy to keep them contained to one area of the tank. Frequently Asked Questions Will floating plants block too much light from my other plants? If left to cover the whole surface, yes. Thin them regularly, or contain them to one area with a floating ring, so light still reaches plants below. How do I stop floating plants from taking over the tank? Net out extra each week once they’re established — Frogbit, Water Lettuce and Pennywort are easy to thin by hand. Duckweed spreads fastest, so remove it more aggressively if you don’t want full coverage. Is Red Water Lily grown the same way as the other plants here? No. Red Water Lily roots in substrate like a normal plant and sends its pads up to the surface, whereas Duckweed, Frogbit, Water Lettuce and Water Mosaic float freely with roots trailing in open water.

    Who We Are

    Grown & Hand-Picked in Surat, Gujarat

    Anubias.in is a small, specialist aquatic-plant nursery and importer based in Surat, Gujarat. We grow, hand-pick and import healthy anubias and aquarium plants for hobbyists across India — from first-time fishkeepers to experienced aquascapers.

    We started Anubias.in because too many plants arrive tired, melted, or covered in algae. We wanted a source you can trust: plants that are genuinely healthy, honestly described, and packed to survive the journey to your door.
