Anubias Pangolino is a small size species of Anubias. It grows long and narrow leaves. This Anubias looks stunning as a special feature foreground or midground plant. We love using it in our shrimp and moss tank. 

This Anubias is a strong plant that can remain healthy in an aquarium with low lighting and without Co2 supplementation. However, it has a slow growth rate, considerably slower than the common Anubias Nana Petite. While Anubias originates from Africa, Anubias Pangolino was produced when it was cultured and cultivated by Dennerle nursery in Germany. The name "Pangolino" was inspired by Pangolin and given by Mr. Massimo Ianella from Italy who tested and found this Anubias to be able to grow while continuously maintaining its miniature form.

Most of our Anubias Pangolino which we are propagating was originally purchased from a very experienced Australian hobbyist in 2018. All Aquarzon Anubias Pangolino are grown with care. We also ensure that they are free from the dreaded Anubias disease which causes sudden melting and can infect others. They are only offered for sale once it meets our quality control standards.
