Hey guys! So theres a bunch of annubias here that the LFS wanted to get rid of. They arent in tip top condition and I was wondering if these will still regrow? Thanks guys!
Are these plants still worth it?

Will regrow. If it was grown above water then there will be some dead leaves but should come back. I’d suggest dosing some fertz into the tank. It’ll help to stimulate some regrowth.
I would definitely take them if the price is right, they can bounce back if you ask me.
I agree with this 100% plenty of green leaves and Anubias are a tough plant. I recommend Anubias to any beginner's who wants live plants in their aquarium.
Gotcha! This is my first time with plants so I am quite uncertain with things. I've read stuff regarding low light plants but this light i bought produces only 2500 lumens. Will this work?
Yeah! Regarding the price, its cheaper than usual I believe since the LFS doesn't want them anymore.
Quite nervous lol. I dont know if I should just get alot or take some only. There's always the option of selling them once they grow back if I don't want them.
Don't be nervous but make sure you inspect the plants prior to placing them in the aquarium. Rinsing them off will help also.
I would take them in a heartbeat. Get them out of those pots, trim the roots a tad to encourage new growth, trim of the dead leaves, and attach to wood or rocks. You can plant directly into gravel so long as the rizome itself is not buried. I have several that are just floating in a tank at the moment while I wait for some root growth and new leaves.
If ever I glue them to my rock or driftwood and i decide to sell them, won't I kill them if the roots are glued to the wood or rock? I was actually thinking of placing them in a multiple seed tray inside the tank and filling it with pebbles? Its the only thing I have right now lol! I just bought fine sand recently and I only use a thin layer haha!
