Anubias Supernova

🌿 Anubias 'Supernova' Overview

Hybrid of Anubias heterophylla

✨ Key Highlights

Anubias ‘Supernova’ is a rare, ornamental hybrid cultivated by the Aquatic Plant Centre in Thailand. With large, lance-shaped leaves and a glossy deep green hue, it’s a striking mid- or background plant that adds bold structure and texture to freshwater aquascapes. Built tough like its parent, A. heterophylla, it thrives with minimal care and adapts well to low-tech tanks.

💚 Why It’s an Aquascaping Favorite

• 🛠️ Low-Maintenance: Forgiving, algae-resistant, and perfect for low-light tanks.
• 🎯 Hardscape Ready: Best when attached to driftwood or stone for a natural look
