General Description

  • Common Name(s): Anubias 'Jenny'
  • Scientific Name: Anubias barteri var. 'Jenny'
  • Visual Description: Characterized by its vibrant green leaves that are more elongated and slightly narrower than those of the typical Anubias barteri. Its growth pattern is dense, creating a lush appearance in aquarium setups.

Growing Conditions

  • Light Requirements: Prefers low to moderate lighting, which helps prevent algae growth on its leaves.
  • Water Requirements: Adapts well to a wide range of water conditions, prioritizing clean and well-oxygenated water.
  • Temperature Range: Thrives in temperatures between 20°C to 30°C (68°F to 86°F), ideal for most community aquariums.
  • Humidity Preferences: Fully submerged growth, no specific humidity requirements.

Planting & Care

  • Substrate Preferences: No need for substrate planting; can be attached to aquarium decor, driftwood, or stones to enhance natural aesthetics.
  • Fertilization Needs: Minimal; benefits from occasional supplementation with liquid fertilizers, particularly in nutrient-poor water.
  • Propagation Methods: Propagate by dividing the rhizome, ensuring each division has at least a couple of leaves.
  • Pruning/Tidying Up: Prune sparingly to remove any old or damaged leaves, maintaining the plant's health and appearance.

Placement

  • Aquarium Placement: Versatile placement options, from foreground to midground, depending on the aquarium's size and design.
  • Attachment: Easily attaches to hardscape, providing a natural and enriched environment for aquatic life.
  • Spacing Requirements: Space adequately to ensure each plant receives sufficient light and water flow.

Compatibility

  • Aquarium Compatibility: Highly compatible with a broad range of fish and invertebrates, particularly beneficial for species that appreciate the shelter and security it offers.
  • Pest/Disease Resistance: Exhibits good resistance to pests and diseases with proper care and maintenance.

Special Requirements or Tips

  • Special Care Instructions: To avoid rhizome rot, ensure it is not buried in the substrate when attaching to decor.
  • Seasonal Care: Stable care requirements year-round, with no significant changes needed for indoor aquariums.

Ecological Impact

  • Invasiveness: Non-invasive when kept in controlled aquarium conditions; poses no threat to natural ecosystems.

Media Types

What is a Gel Cup?

A tissue culture vessel is a clear gel, transparent container (5 cm diameter x 7 cm height) that holds multiple young plants (typically 3 or more) grown under laboratory conditions.

These vessels provide a carefully controlled environment, keeping the plants healthy and contaminant-free until they're ready to transition to standard growing conditions.

Quick Hardening Steps:

  1. Open Lid Gradually: Slightly open the cup to slowly reduce humidity.
  2. Maintain Humidity: Gradually decrease humidity over 2–4 weeks.
  3. Indirect Light: Start with gentle, indirect lighting.
  4. Moist Soil: Keep media damp, never wet.
  5. Monitor Closely: Slowly increase airflow and light exposure.

What is a Transition Cup

Each transparent Transition Cup (5 cm diameter × 7 cm height) contains a juvenile carnivorous plant that has moved beyond sterile tissue culture and into a structured transition medium.

Inside, you’ll find a young carnivorous plant securely planted in a semi-solid blend designed to support root development while easing the shift from gel to soil.

This carefully balanced environment maintains optimal humidity and airflow, helping reduce transplant shock and supporting the plant during this critical transition stage.

Suitable for both novice growers and experienced collectors, Transition Cups provide a reliable, low-stress way to guide delicate carnivorous plants toward successful soil establishment.

What is a Transition Cup

Soil Cup

Each transparent carnivorous cup (5 cm diameter x 7 cm height) contains a juvenile carnivorous plant freshly transitioned from tissue culture.

Inside, you'll find a young carnivorous plant planted securely in special growing media soil that replicates their natural habitat.

This carefully balanced environment maintains optimal humidity, aiding the delicate plants during their crucial hardening-off stage.

Perfect for both novice growers and experienced collectors, these cups provide a simple and effective way to cultivate and enjoy captivating insect-eating plants.
