Anubias var. Frazeri
         
   

Light: very low to high

Growth: very slow

Demands: easy

Pruning: Cut older leaves at base of stem. Cutting older leaves promotes new growth.

Propagation: Cut the rhizome in small pieces, better if cut pieces already have signs of new growth showing and well rooted. I usually cut the rhizome while plant is rooted and wait a month or so until new growth is showing from the cut pieces, then I pull them out.

Planting: on wood, stone or just about anywhere else. The rhizome must remain uncovered at all times. Rooting is slow but strong, use fishing line or similar to attach to objects until plant grips itself. Not a good idea to move this plant around too much as rooting is very slow.


 
         
     
 

Experience: Anubias Frazeri is a hardy plant as well as all Anubias and it thrives in most conditions.
I started out with one large plant and now I have allot of them. Even thou they are slow growers with is a year with good conditions you can have allot of plants. This plant will grow taller then nana and coffeefolia. They have a longer stem and elongated leaves. I use this plant in the background because of its height.

I keep a 20gal. tank setup full on baby mollies. When Anubias start to get covered with algae I will give them a 1/19 bath for 2min. (bleach/water). Then I would put them into the tank with all the baby mollies. In less then one weeks time they with have them all clean. Then I rotate them back into the show tanks.
