Is my Anubias healthy?

[Deadeye]

Anubias don’t really need root tabs. They can do fine with little extra care. They like lower to moderate light, but high light won’t kill them.
They are slow growers.

I can get liquid fertilizer or if they have it I can get these capsules that you put in the gravel that I guess the plant eats over time. Which is better

Anubius absorbs nutrients thru it's leaves in the aquarium.

So it’s not likely that the condition right now will kill it? I’ll get some root tabs to put in my tank. Dumb question, how do I get nitrate up?

i dont use liquid ferts so i always try to achieve a nitrate sink of some kind whether that be really dirty filter media or just by never gravel vaccuuming the tank( still do waterchanges but dont remove the particulates and detritus that create the nitrogen). i usually heavily plant my tanks or dont plant them so this could be irrevlavant to you if its your only plant in the tank.
