antz Posted June 3, 2010 Share Posted June 3, 2010 java fern and anubias (the ones on driftwood usually) are pretty hardy. you can tie them on sand stone or similar and eventually it will root itself on to it. many people use driftwood or rocks. different sizes which is different prices. buy i heard its cheapest to buy online..

parkesg Posted June 3, 2010 Share Posted June 3, 2010 HI, I use A barteri broadleaf and find these the best one to use for hard water. I have tried a LOT of other anubias and they do not do as well. You can tie to a rock or put straight into the gravel. When you buy them cut off excess roots, so only 2-3 cm remain, and remove poor qualuty leaves. This way the roots will not rot. You can ususally buy anubias in different sizes, small to large..so just hold off till you find large ones. Cost? HTH Grant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CThompson Posted June 4, 2010 Share Posted June 4, 2010 i read that if you bury the roots they rot ? You can bury the roots but NOT the rhizome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
