Anubias Congensis

Anubias Congensis is a  west African plant which grows spear-shaped bright green leaves from small stems which branch from a rhizome. Its thick roots grow downward from this rhizome. It is a very slow grower, because of this it is often prone to algae growth on the leaves. Keeping the plant shad will sometimes avoid this problem. 

Anubias Congensis is a good choice for low light aquariums it can live in less than one watt per gallon of light. It also dose well in higher light aquariums although care must be taken to control algae since its leaves are very prone to it. As with most plants, the addition of Co2 will boost the growth rate but it is not necessary.
