Anubias "Coffeefolia" is a unique and highly sought-after species of Anubias known for its striking, dark green leaves that exhibit a rich, textured surface resembling the veins of a coffee leaf—hence the name "Coffeefolia." This slow-growing, hardy plant is perfect for aquarium enthusiasts looking to add both beauty and function to their freshwater tanks. Anubias Coffeefolia is perfect for low-tech setups and aquascaping, as it thrives in low light and requires minimal care, making it an excellent choice for both beginners and experienced aquarists alike.

Unlike many aquatic plants, Anubias Coffeefolia prefers to be attached to rocks, driftwood, or other hard surfaces, rather than being planted in substrate, making it ideal for aquascapes where space or substrate conditions may be limiting. With its attractive foliage, ease of care, and ability to flourish in a variety of water conditions, Anubias Coffeefolia adds a touch of natural elegance to any aquarium.

- Water Quality Improvement: Like all Anubias plants, it helps absorb excess nutrients and maintain a balanced aquatic environment by acting as a natural filter.

Care Instructions:

- Lighting: Anubias Coffeefolia thrives in low to moderate light. While it can tolerate bright light, excessive lighting can encourage algae growth on the plant's leaves.

- Maintenance: Regularly wipe down the leaves to remove any algae buildup and trim any dead or damaged leaves to keep the plant healthy and looking its best.

Applications:

- Freshwater aquariums
- Aquascaping and planted tank designs
- Community tanks with small to medium-sized fish

Note: Anubias Coffeefolia is a slow-grower, making it a great choice for aquariums that require minimal plant maintenance. It is also well-suited for aquascaping layouts where space is at a premium, as it doesn’t need to be planted in the substrate and can be placed strategically in the hardscape.
