Bold, broad leaves on a bulletproof plant. Anubias barteri broad leaf features large, dark green, leathery leaves that create a strong visual anchor. Extremely hardy — thrives in low light, no CO₂, and a wide range of water parameters.
Attach to driftwood or rock — never bury the rhizome. Slow growth means minimal maintenance but watch for algae on older leaves in high-light tanks.
