Hygrophila lancea 'Chai'A striking color distinguishes this foreground plant - an eye-catcher in any aquarium.Cultivation difficulty: moderately demandingLight requirement: highCO₂ requirement: medium to highAdult plant height: Bushy, low growthGrowth: SlowTemperature: 20 - 28°CPlacement in aquarium: ForegroundOrigin: South Island Aquarium in Singapore.
Cup diameter: 6 cm
Unique pink Hygrophila 'Chai' is a striking variegated cultivar of Hygrophila lancea "Araguaia" that appeared at South Island Aquarium in Singapore. Its narrow-lineal leaves, curved to the side, are green only in the center, the margin is white to pink. The shade is reminiscent of that of Cryptocoryne wendtii 'Flamingo' and 'Pink Panther'. So like the normal 'Araguaia', Hygrophila lancea 'Chai' grows submersed rather spreading and strongly branched.
We recommend for Hygrophila lancea 'Chai' rather strong lighting, CO₂ addition and good macro and micronutrient supply. Growth is slow, and occasional cutting of shoot tips encourages bushy growth. Just like other stem plants, you can propagate this Hygrophila by heading and partial cuttings.
Hygrophila lancea 'Chai' provides a unique bright pink color accent in the mid to foreground, best as a smaller bushy group. It contrasts strongly with dark plants and decorative materials.Planting: The plant must be removed from the cup and thoroughly rinsed of gel under running water. This is best done by placing the plant in a container of lukewarm water. Most of the gel will then fall off by itself. Divide the contents of the cup into 1-2 cm lumps and then place them at a small distance on the selected items.

Anubias Barteri Nana 'Petite'
Anubias Barteri Nana 'Petite' is a very small, uniformly filigree Anubias variety. Selection has resulted in a miniature form that is ideal for nano aquariums.Difficulty of cultivation: easy Light requirement: low CO₂ requirement: low Height of the adult plant: up to 5 cm Growth slow Temperature: 20-30 °C Placement in aquarium: In the foreground Origin: cultivation 6 cm cup diameter Anubias barteri is a succulent green plant of the rhizome family, naturally native to the swamps of Cameroon and Nigeria, growing in fast-flowing waters. It can grow both under and above water. "Petite" is a selected cultivar of Anubias barteri. This species does not occur in nature in such a miniature form. Consistent selection by Singapore botanists has resulted in a delicate, compact version of Anubias barteri for nano-aquariums. The variety is rarely seen in the trade and represents a kind of rarity. The plant has a rhizome that forms roots that strongly entwine the area in which it is planted. It is therefore ideal for planting on roots or rocks, such as volcanic lava.The very decorative, tiny, heart-shaped leaves are stiff and fleshy, shiny on the surface and have a velvety texture on the underside. At the same time, they are very hard and stiff, so herbivorous fish are not interested in them. The height of this miniature plant is less than 5 cm. Therefore, it is well suited for the foreground. However, it can also be used for eye-catching trees in the background. Under good conditions, it can produce a delicate white flower. Anubias Barteri Nana 'Petite' can handle a variety of temperatures. It can thrive in cooler tanks as well as in warm, tropical aquariums with discus fish, for example. It likes water with a pH of 5.5-8.0, up to 15 ° dH. it prefers weak, diffuse lighting, reaching more like 0.3 W/l. In case of prolonged and intense lighting, it may become overgrown with algae. Therefore, it is advisable to plant it in darker or even shaded areas of the tank. The plant does not like neglected aquariums, it prefers water that is changed regularly and does not leave dirt on its leaves. It grows slowly, but forms a very attractive shape, especially when it grows in a group to form a green, decorative clump. It is very comfortable in tanks with low water levels and looks great in nano aquariums. Therefore, it is a popular plant for many aquascapers. With it can create very interesting miniature compositions. It also does well in aquariums with cichlids and other herbivorous fish. It is often used in shrimp tanks and nano aquariums for fighting fish. It does not require special care, it is enough to remove older leaves, which stimulates the rhizome to form offshoots. If you want to get new cuttings, you can divide the rhizome into 2-3 cm long sections from time to time. To attach the Anubias to roots or stones, it is enough to use very thin string, thread or special glue for fixing aquarium plants.
Planting: The plant must be removed from the cup and thoroughly rinsed from the gel under running water. This is best done by placing the plant in a container of lukewarm water. Most of the gel will then fall off by itself.

Another and also new variety of the dwarf spear leaf is the 'Gold' variety. It was discovered in the normal cultivation stock in a nursery in Taiwan. After isolation, it took a few years until a stable stock was available. Its light green to golden yellow leaf colour clearly distinguishes it from other dark green Anubias species. The lighting should not be too weak here, otherwise the plants will become darker in leaf colour again.

It really couldn't get any smaller! It is probably the smallest Anubias in the world and a real enrichment for any underwater landscape. In cultivation and care it is just as robust as the parent form, but needs a little more light to form beautiful, compact cushions. The dwarf form can already be used in a 10 L Nano Cube. The plants look very natural when tied onto delicate roots. The red bogwood is best suited for this. But the Bonsai Anubias also cuts a fine figure on decorative stones.
