Anubias barteri is an extremely variable species and it is, at the same time, the most common of the Anubias genus. Several cultured hybrids exist, apart from naturally occurring varieties, and it is commonly produced from tissue cultures. Anubias barteri var. barteri anchors easily to rocks and roots in the aquarium and care must be taken if it is planted directly into the sediment- always leave the rhizome on top of the sediment because it does not tolerate burial.
