Hugo Kamishi Anubias Green Silk Aquarium Plant

The Hugo Kamishi Anubias Green Silk Aquarium Plant is a realistic artificial plant for adding instant greenery, height and cover to freshwater aquariums without the maintenance required by living plants.

Inspired by the broad leaves of Anubias, the soft silk-style foliage creates a more natural appearance than many rigid plastic plants and moves gently with the water. It’s a particularly useful choice for aquariums where live plants are difficult to maintain or where fish have a habit of digging them up.

Available in several heights, it can be used for anything from foreground and midground planting to creating taller areas of cover towards the back of the aquarium.

Silk Aquarium Plant with Natural-Looking Foliage

This silk aquarium plant combines broad green leaves with a weighted base, allowing it to be positioned easily amongst gravel or other aquarium substrates.

The softer foliage gives the plant a more natural appearance and movement while providing fish with additional areas to explore, swim amongst and retreat behind.

An Easy Alternative to Live Plants

Live plants can be a fantastic addition to an aquarium, but they aren’t suitable for every set-up.

Artificial plants require no specialist plant lighting, fertilisers or CO₂, and there’s no need to trim damaged or overgrown leaves. They’re also useful with fish that regularly uproot or disturb natural planting.

Unlike live plants, artificial plants don’t contribute to nutrient uptake or oxygen production, so they should be considered decoration and cover rather than part of the aquarium’s biological system.

Creates Cover for Aquarium Fish

Adding plants at different heights helps break up open areas of an aquarium and provides useful visual barriers and sheltered spaces.

This can be particularly beneficial in community aquariums where fish appreciate somewhere to retreat from activity elsewhere in the tank.

The Anubias-style leaves also provide structure without taking up the amount of swimming space required by bulky ornaments.

Weighted for Easy Positioning

The plant has a weighted base to help keep it securely positioned in the aquarium.

Simply place the base into the substrate and arrange the surrounding gravel or sand around it for a more natural appearance. It can easily be repositioned whenever you want to change the aquarium layout.

Choose the Right Size

With several heights available, the Anubias Green can be used in different areas of the aquarium.

Smaller versions work well around rocks, wood and other decorations, while the taller plants are particularly useful towards the rear or sides of larger aquariums where additional height and cover are needed.
