Agree 100% Anubias is the absolute best and easiest beginner plant. Grows slow which allows for easy care. Nearly indestructible so care is practically not needed. And the plant survived with aggressive Cicclids for about a year despite getting beat up.

I started growing nana petite in soil outside of my tanks. I love these plants!

And now that this video is out anubias nana will be nearly impossible to find. Lol

I opened this immediately upon seeing the notification only to find this was uploaded 7 hours ago... My anubius Nana petite is still recovering from being lost in the mail for a month. That was a couple of months ago. It has a few tiny leaves now, but still recovering...so I haven't really had much experience with it yet. I can say I'm impressed with its ability to grow back from literally just roots and a broken, damaged little stem thing. Definitely a survivor.

What a Charming sense memory of your grandfather's house. I love the relaxing music. So soothing, so right for a freshwater planted tank.

Thanks for this. I am a newb and love all Anubias and Java fern. I have been considering a all Anubias tank and now I am going for it. Thanks again and your channel has been a big help in my new addiction.

Thanks Joel. I love your story telling style. With that gorgeous tank and the ambiance lighting and guitar music has me totally hypnotized! Oh and now another Joel ! Wow! Nice job ❤️

I love these plants they are my favorite 💜

Nana petite! Nana petite! Nanabanana, banana petite... I'm singing! Thanks for the great video; relaxed, great info, great shots... Love the Oscen style!

I love finding these videos of yours. Thank you for sharing! - Little Bobby

I love your plant highlights.

SO excited to see this thumbnail as this is my FAVORITE plant!!! So, not only a poster worthy thumbnail AND a nana petite song?! Woop! 🙌🌿 Thank you, sir!

Truly a classic plant 🌱 ..... love it

Love this plant 🌱 it’s like just wow wish that there was more plants like this

Great video definitely one of my favorites you have done. Thanks for sharing 👍😃

Thanks for the petite history! The tutorials sound like fun! 😄😃

Live trimming, live trimming! Also wonderful video once again, love these profiles!

Thank you Joel, very cool.

I was here! 😊 I love these little spotlight videos. There’re so relaxing. I think live demos on the stream would be pretty cool!

Thanks for the Video. I like the memory share about Grandfather's lawn. Nice share on your part :-). Love the tank.

Look at all your Anubias💚. Your aquarium is gorgeous. Love it! I had a lot of Anubias Petite and Buce in a 10g aquarium several yrs ago. It was my favorite tank for a few years until I got spotted algae.

Great video for an amazing plant

This channel is going to blow up. Very high quality video.

Great video Joel, I hope you’re feeling better Brother.

Hey man great video and as always thanks for the inspiration.

the bamboo shrimp are looking fabulous!

Really cool plant! Thanks for the video. I had nana petite under high light but moved it after algae looked insane. But this affirmed my concern.

Great video and information!

Nice vid! Thank you for sharing! I enjoyed watching! Cool background music to match!

Love Nana Petite

Great video thanks, I actually just got some from the CoOp & attached it to some driftwood for a new spot for 1 of my Delhezi bichir since he outgrew his favorite chill spot lol. Was glad to see this & the post on your pond, was a little worried when ya didn't have a stream yesterday glad to see everythings good!!

Beautiful tank! My favorite plants are Anubias and Crypts.

My favorite...another chillaxin' plant species. Had this on repeat while I was messing around with what?? Anubias nana petite and pearl weed I got from the Coop a couple of weeks ago. Timing is everything. I was talking to my plants, yes I am one of those people, lol, anyway talking to them, saying... you hear that? That's Joel talking about you, and what a wonderful, lovely little plant you are. If plants smile...mine are. 💕👍💕

by far my favorite plant im gonna probably start a garden of the stuff

Love this plant, even I can grow it. A live trimming sounds great 🤓

That is an AWESOME aquarium!

Love nana petite, it’s one of my favorite plants. I also have some golden nana petite 😍

Beautiful tank! Love me some anubias

I'M SORRY TO REPEAT MY SELF BUT REALLY LOVE THIS SEGMENT,,, THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SHARING THIS KEEP UP THE GREAT JOB 👍🌿💯💯

I'm amazed at how many types of Anubias are out there! I maayyy have made a teeny mistake and got my first aquarium plant (Anubias) as a teeny little baby cause I wanted a pinto and the cheapest was a tiny one. It's really cute though! Can't wait to see it get bigger

I'm just getting into the hobby and I'd love an anubias only tank, as I think they're the best looking plants. Just wish they weren't so expensive compared to other beginner plants.

I just ordered one from eBay that comes attached to a lava rock! I'm so excited for it to come 😊

Great video... keep it up man. Your definatly inspiring and I hope to soon be up and going with a channel myself.

Great video!

Thank you for your help. Fred from Wenatchee Washington.

Thank you for the information sir I think of a live trimming would be pretty cool. I'm looking forward to your life tutorials now. Thanks again. I work in the area you grandpa lived. Wouldn't doubt if I installed in his old house.

I like the mentions of the different dosing of Easy Green levels so I don't just follow the pump per ten gallon rule.

I love this!!! I can’t wait to play with my nana petite!!!

Yes to a live tutorial! That would be amazing.

Now, That's a Nanna!

I'm waiting for a little tour video... what u have going on in the fish room and a little tour of all the tanks ^^

I like it!

Awesome...I need more info and ideas for my first planted tank and the Nana.... Got a lot and don't know what to do with it next...

hello fellow western washingtonian! Loved this video, had to like and subscribe!

Esssuuuhhhh mui bueno senor! Great little plant.

I love these plant profiles. :) Kleiner Prinz Sword profile would be cool at some point.

Great vid and good music! I was here!

Great video. Thank you for sharing! And, "Yes" on the live trimming video. That would be fantastic. I am still learning about trimming, on all sorts of plants. Any helpful trimming videos would be greatly appreciated! Laaaaaay-ter!

I love your tanks and would love to see a live video on how to have my tank look so beautiful.

Great video, keep it up man. Love from India

Did your Great Grandfather have a Dichondra lawn? It was super popular back then, especially in the warmer parts of the state. But the herbicide that was used to keep Grass out of it was banned in the late 1970s so they went out of fashion. Plus they were a lot more maintenance than a regular grass lawn. But yeah, a well kept Dichondra lawn was a thing of beauty! Thanks for the video!

My favorite part about nana petite is the microscopic clusters that form. Leaves no more 3-5mm wide. Great plant!

That is a beautiful tank. I have at least 6 varieties of Anubias I've lost count. lol Yes, algae is a problem, but I don't sweat it too much because one of my standard larger leaf Bateri that has algae is actually blooming so I would think that it means it's fairly healthy. I brush the algae off and trim the leaves on occasion. I think if you did premiere videos where you can be in the chat answering questions would be cool.

Looking forward to propagation!

This comment might get lost in the crowd but, I think the plant that your grandfather had as his lawn might have been "Soleirolia" also known as, "Peace in the home plant". Well that's what we call it here in South Africa :D

New to hobby. Will purchase a nano tank and am planning the layout and want to put a nana petite on a synthetic tree trunk as a center piece. Also want a low light plant in the rear corner which will grow higher, looking into a Java Fern - Microsorum Pteropus . Your aquarium is awesome.

Yes! live stream some trimming bro! Love the content. That is a lot of anubius!

new here in your channel. nice video quality! mind if you share your camera specs?

I came I saw Iikie. Love the tutorials.

Hey have good question. I burned my Anubis nana petite on my bonsai and had to trim alot of brown off aka dead spots. Looks like the plant will recover but my question 🙋🏻 is how long we'll it take to grow back!? I searched no answer.

I’ve got a kinda goofy looking semi artificial set up with a piece of fake wood along with some fake plants (in addition to real rock and wood.) but it’s got fake gravel too. I put 3 rhizomes of petite on the real wood (cuz you can’t plant like anything else due to fake gravel) and they are stunning. I also took some moss and stuffed it on some rocks and in the crevices of the fake wood. This is an all tetra/S. America tank and I love it. The fish love it too, the little neons have a nice place to hide, and somehow my buenos aries haven’t eaten them. The Cory cats (only non tetras in the tank) also enjoy it, and it has helped out my filters a ton on that tank. The next step is to get a natural colored gravel instead of a predominantly black shade with some charcoal and gray throughout, but I’ll save that for another time. And yeah the artificial plants blend decently and give it some fullness (I really wanted to do Buenos Aires tetras but they will eat most live plants, hence the semi artificial tank.) And then it’s as easy as add a splash of sechem liquid fertilizer and some API stress-zyme and the tank is flourishing. I may also add some snails in case alge, but all my ones in the past have just flipped over.

Hey Corvus, I want to add some low light plants to my 100 gallon (72 x18x19) pleco tank. Do you think 1 36" Fluval 3.0 enough for anubias and other low light plants? I don't want the tank to be too bright. Thanks in advance

I bought a pot of nana petite from the Coop, got 5 plants out of it. They're all putting on new leaves, only been a couple of weeks.

I would love to see a live propagation video.

Does it bloom like the other Anubis’s? I’ve never seen a nana petit bloom and would love if it would

Love me some anubias

Human brains are weird. Bacon makes me think of my childhood. My Granny was an excellent cook. The smell of bacon takes me back to breakfasts in the summer at the beach. If I close my eyes, I can see my Granny at the stove, I can smell the bacon, I can feel the breeze coming off the ocean flowing through the open doors and windows of the beach house. Back to anubias. I have every variety I have been able to find. I think it's a great plant. You can do so many things with it. You can also get it at PetSmart and it will be in decent shape. I consider myself a beginner and I would pick it over moss. Although, I do love my mosses. I think a live trimming would be interesting. We could ask questions in real time. Take care of yourself and give little Olivia a snuggle from me. (Does that seem creepy since I don't actually know you? I hope not. It's not meant that way. LOL. The internet makes relationships weird sometimes.)

I love story time

Hey Joel, looking for a CO2 regulator suggestion. Was going to buy from Cory but he stopped selling them. Do you know who else sells that regulator? I searched Amazon and was unable to locate it.

Great info, I'm guilty of using anubias and moss way too much because it's so hardy

so he is basically an anubias expert

I would love to watch you aqua scape a tank cheers from London uk

Actually, coffeefolia is named thusly because the leaves look exactly like those of a coffee plant. It comes from a coffee growing region, and the namer made the connection between the two plants. It's like an underwater coffee plant is so identical! However yes it is lovely how the leaves turn coffee color under bright light. I don't think American aquarists realize this unless they have had an actual coffee plant. I keep them as houseplants, so the first time I ever received a coffefolia, I knew immediately where the name came from! Did some checking, and yep.

I am learning first hand wen someone says slow growing it's no joke. My little piece is growing so slow.

Hi. I was here.

Did the plant in your grandfather's lawn have little heart shaped leaves?

Gr8 Vid Sir 👊 & to everyone considering buying real plants for your Tank/Tanks Do it you won’t be disappointed ! #MuchRespect #AquaScape

On the G-G-Pa lawn, I think I’d love to fill my Ohio backyard with something like that instead of traditional grass. I have something like pennywort in a corner that may spread...

My Anubis’s has literally been sucked in my filter for months and has some damage but is still alive and doing okay. Like what the f

Cool channel, new sub here.

I was here

I thought you'd compare them...

wait a minute! Hoooooowww? i can keep rotalla walichi, Ludwigia Arcuata and Cryptocoryne pink successfully but moss and anubius always get infested with algae. I would like to have a word with whoever said that moss and anubius are beginner plants

Oh hi! Haha

Human brains are odd sometimes. That's why I don't use one. 🙂

Great video!
