Aquascaping Tips
Anubias Coffeefolia works beautifully as an accent plant attached to driftwood or stone. Its heavily textured leaves provide excellent contrast against finer-leaved plants such as Rotala, Monte Carlo, or Hairgrass. Avoid burying the rhizome in substrate, as this can cause the plant to rot. For best results, secure it to hardscape and allow it to naturally establish over time.
