I got this plant about 4 years ago when it was just a few stems and about 20" tall. It has been in each of my big tanks and now is in my 33 gal rimless. I was rescaping my 33 last night and took these pictures. I am 6'2", so those things are huge.

Nice anubias! I'm guessing these are hastifolia?

 

[hydrophyte]

Nice, have they bloomed for you at all?

 

[HybridHerp]

How does one even keep something that massive in a fishtank? I feel like it would be epic in something like a nile monitor enclosure....
planted monster reptile tanks ftw?

 

[driftwoodhunter]

Wow - fantastic! Hastifolia is my favorite - I had no idea they could grow so large "topside" Makes me even more committed to turning one of my tanks into an open topped tank...

 

[acitydweller]

Woah, I don't think ziplock makes a bag that fits them

 

[rodcuda]

Those look great. Very cool.

Do you think those would fit in my 2 gallon spec? :tongue: :icon_lol:

 

[Gamezawy]

OMG that's really huge

They bloom regularly. The blooms are not a nice looking as standard underwater anubias blooms though.

I doubt it. You could probably cut off a couple of leaves and put them in your spec like a vase.

I love open top tanks. I even have a second set of lights on my ceiling so that these can grow above my tank lights. I have a journal if you want to check it out.

I clicked on the link to your 150, thinking that might be it - you freaked me out in the first post when you said your 125 split a seam. I have a 125 that's so off level the water is 1" higher on one end than the other. I ignore it, but now I'll start fretting over sleepless nights again! lol

Speaking of open topped tanks, I have a QT tank that's open - it's only a 10g and the evaporation is wicked. How often do you find yourself topping your open tanks? The tank I am thinking about doing an open riparium with is a 40B.

That pic of you and the plant beed to be on the Plant Profile page. If for no other reason than for people that doubt growth sizes.

 

[psalm18.2]

Do you have any photos of the tank with the plants in them?

 

[shrimpedout]

Awesome plants man.

Get shrimped out!

Here are a couple of pics of the 33gal with the plants now. I had to do a little trimming on them before planting them.
