Anubias Barteri (Pot)

Name: Anubias Barteri
Placement: Midground
Difficulty: Easy

Anubias are one of the most popular aquarium plants among hobbyists as it is a fairly undemanding plant to grow well.  Anubias Barteri is a medium sized plant and is characterized by broad, dark green leaves that are shaped as spades. Anubias Barteri is a good midground plant that grows well when attached to driftwood or rocks. With all types of anubias, it is important not to bury the rhizome in the substrate as they get most of their nutrients from the water column. Instead, attach the anubias to a rock or piece of driftwood allowing the roots to be exposed.
