Schismatoglottis prietoi 1-2 grow

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.


Schismatoglottis prietoi is a real novelty and an enrichment for aquariums. The plant is a little reminiscent of a small-growing Anubias but has much softer leaves. It can be planted directly into the soil, with a very good rate of propagation. According to initial experiences, this new beauty from the Philippines also grows on roots or stones. It is highly recommended for smaller aquariums such as Nano Cubes. Due to its compact growth and small size, in the near future it will also be used frequently in aquascaping.
