    Hi taybelZ,

    You can try comparing with the Nana in the gallery. Nanas can be secured on driftwood using cotton thread, fishing line or those cable twist used to tie loose wires.

    It is a Anubias barteri var. barteri, not Anubias barteri var. nana.

    Anubias barteri var. nana has smaller leaves, and the leaf does not have prominent veins. It will also have shorter petiole than what you showed in your picture.

    Take a look at Amano's pictures, he use nana more often than barteri

    Thats a shame, i was hoping it was a nana, the LFS lady told me it was an "NANA" as well.
    Is Anubias barteri var. barteri still good for attacting to driftwood, the roots look nice for wrapping around driftwood

    Not sure the Greek name but this is commonly known to most lfs as NANA. Their roots can be attached to driftwood by tying them initially with fishing lines.

    By the way, nice discus esp the small yellow ones, if u selling pm me the price.
