Anubias Spear Leaf is aflowering plant that grows best when the rhizome is attached to a hard surface such as wood or stones. If they are being planted into substrate, only have the roots in the substrate. Burying the rhizome may lead to the plant melting. They have low to medium light requirements and can benefit from regular fertilization. CO2 is not necessary but can promotefaster growth and more robust leaves. Since it’s a slow grower, the leaves are susceptible to algae growth if placed under high lighting.

Propagation is simple: rhizomes can be split by cutting
