Anubias barteri var. barteri is a large, robust, and easy-to-care-for aquatic plant, making it an excellent choice for both beginners and experienced aquascapers. This plant features broad, dark green, leathery leaves, which grow larger than those of Anubias barteri var. nana, making it ideal for midground or background placement in aquariums. Its durability and adaptability allow it to thrive in a variety of water conditions, making it a favorite in low-tech setups and cichlid tanks.

Unlike traditional rooted plants, Anubias barteri var. barteri grows best when attached to driftwood, rocks, or other hardscape elements. It does not require substrate planting, as burying the rhizome can cause it to rot. This slow-growing plant requires minimal maintenance and can tolerate low to moderate lighting without the need for CO₂ supplementation. Its thick leaves make it highly resistant to herbivorous fish, making it an ideal choice for aquariums with plant-eating species.

Key Features:

  • Size: 20-45 cm in height, with broad, dark green leaves

  • Growth Rate: Slow-growing, requires minimal maintenance
