svetilda Posted February 17, 2016 Report Share Posted February 17, 2016 After I bought some bucephalandras I've decided that I love anubias more. (I'm still keeping the buces and see how they will look later.) I have a few anubias in my goldfish tank (nana, petite, and I forgot the name of the another but have it written down). A few petites, a micro (really don't see a difference between petite and micro) and a nana in my shrimp tanks and all of them are doing good. I found them cheerfull plants. Now I really want a white anubias. I can't spend a hundred for a plant, so I was looking more to Pinto and Stardust. If I understand right pinto only has some white leaves and stardust has only white marks on leaves. Do you know if the marks are permanent or they will/can go away in different water parameters/light? Please, share your expirience with any of the white anubias. Also what size are they? ctaylor3737 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jem_xxiii Posted February 17, 2016 Report Share Posted February 17, 2016 I believe stardust stays white in the middle of the leaves (you can find a 3-5 leaf plantlet for $18 on aquabid), been looking for some myself, but I decided I will probably just wait until the prices go down. As far as pintos, well I cant really help ya there. svetilda 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vshrimp Posted February 17, 2016 Report Share Posted February 17, 2016 Stardust imo grows slower than pinto and is much smaller. With pinto I've notice if grown in med-hi light will throw out white leaves vs low light. As the leaves age the white leaves tend to fade away turning green. Some with specks of white and some full green. Heres a pic of my pinto.

Unfortunately they are expensive, I've even tried to import them and rhey are still very high at wholesale. Problem really is how slow they grow. Your paying because it took a very long time to grow and stay stable.Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk jem_xxiii, rwong2k and Soothing Shrimp 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RodoRios Posted February 20, 2016 Report Share Posted February 20, 2016 I got the white var from Tom Barr (plantbrain on tpt) for 80$ per plant and they came in with 10~ leaves each. Best price I've seen and you're not getting a tiny plantlet. jem_xxiii and rwong2k 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
