Description

Anubias Afzelii Old Type originates from the rivers and streams of Africa and features a sturdy rhizome that securely anchors it to the substrate. Its broad, narrow leaves with pointed tips and pinnate-netted venation provide excellent hiding spots for small fish and invertebrates. This plant's resilience and elegance make it a valuable addition to any aquatic environment, offering both aesthetic appeal and practical benefits. Typically, Anubias Afzelii Old Type grows to a size ranging from 5 cm to a maximum of 10 cm, making it smaller than the Anubias Afzelii (New). 

Known for its hardiness and low maintenance, this aquatic plant thrives in a temperature range of 22°C to 28°C (72°F to 82°F) and a pH level between 6.5 and 7.5. It’s popular among both beginner and experienced aquarists for its adaptability to various water conditions. Anubias Afzelli Old Type not only enhances the aquarium’s visual appeal but also supports the ecosystem by producing oxygen and offering hiding places for timid species. As light filters through the water, creating dappled shadows on the gravel below, it stands as a symbol of nature's beauty and tranquillity.
