Its deep green, thick leaves stand out and provide valuable refuge for aquatic animals.

It is best placed in the middle ground and will look its best under low to moderate lighting. Excessive lighting can result in unattractive, pesky algae growth on its leaves. However, this algae growth can easily be kept under control in an aquarium with a healthy population of shrimp (especially Amano shrimp) that will constantly graze on the algae without harming the Anubias plant itself. Most herbivorous animals will not harm Anubias Congensis whatsoever, although some biofilm\/”wood-eating” \u003cem\u003ePanaque\u003c\/em\u003e genus plecos may “chew” holes in its leaves.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eLike many Anubias species, this plant is slow and steady in growth and does not seem to respond to CO2 supplementation as highly as many other plants.

It can also be planted emersed in terrariums, paludariums, and viquariums.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNo aquarium plant distributor\/nursery\/wholesaler\/retailer can or will guarantee their plants to be 100% snail free.
