✂️ Care

Anubias is an epiphyte and grows best attached to wood or stone — not in the substrate. Tie the plant with string or thread; after a few weeks, it will attach itself. The thicker leaf structure makes this plant extra suitable for cichlid aquariums.

💡 Planter's tip

Due to its extra sturdy leaves, it's a good choice for aquariums with larger or more active fish species.
