Schismatoglottis prietoi can resemble Anubias, wit 3-8 cm long, eliptic leaves. Growth is faster, though, and it grows best planted in the bottom layer, where it willingly produces runners.
It is an undemanding and easy plant, thriving very well in most aquaria, even in very poor light. Schismatoglottis prietoi naturally grows in rivers of the Phillipines, where it often appears in large, dense groups.
- Easy foreground plant for low light tanks
- Looks like anubias but plants into the ground
- 100% clean with no algae, duckweed, or snails
Schismatoglottis prietoi is a relatively new plant to the aquarium hobby that looks like anubias but has softer leaves and prefers to be planted in substrate. Its almond-shaped, green leaves grow to 1–3 inches (3–8 cm) long and have wavy edges. This compact species is easy to care for and does well in low tech planted aquariums. Once they become well-established, they develop a dense root system and have a faster growth rate than your typical anubias.
