The Anubias heterophylla is a larger Anubias species with long, lance-shaped leaves that make it an impressive addition to midground or background areas of an aquarium. Known for its sturdy, dark green leaves, this plant can thrive in both submerged and emersed conditions, making it highly versatile for a range of aquascapes, including aquariums and paludariums. Like other members of the Anubias family, it is hardy, adaptable, and ideal for aquarists looking for a low-maintenance yet visually impactful plant.
Key Features:
- Long, Lance-Shaped Leaves: The broad, lanceolate leaves of Anubias heterophylla can grow quite large, creating an impressive, lush look in aquariums. The leaves are deep green and thick, adding an attractive texture to the tank.
- Slow Growth: This plant has a slow growth rate, requiring minimal maintenance. It adds a natural, structured appearance to aquascapes while being easy to care for.
- Versatile Planting Options: Anubias heterophylla can be attached to hardscape elements like driftwood or rocks, or it can be rooted in the substrate. However, care must be taken to ensure the rhizome is above the substrate to prevent rot.
- Ideal for Midground and Background: Due to its larger size, this plant is perfect for creating depth and serving as a visual focal point in the midground or background of the aquarium.
Planting Tips:
- The rhizome should be placed above the substrate to avoid rot. Attach the plant to rocks, driftwood, or other hardscape features using thread or fishing line until it anchors itself naturally.
- Anubias heterophylla is well-suited for tanks with fish and shrimp, as its sturdy leaves can withstand grazing and provide cover for smaller inhabitants.
- Place the plant in an area of the aquarium with moderate water flow to prevent debris accumulation and keep its large leaves clean.
