Silly Newbie Potted Plant Question

[MarkP]

So, I added some Anubius to my tank today... and it came in a cheap plastic pot with some sort of wrapping around the root system. Should I keep the contents of the pot, or unwrap the roots?

Unwrap the roots. Anubias do best tied to a rock or piece of driftwood.

Anubias will do quite well if planted in the substrate. However, the rhizome must remain above the surface of the substrate. The rhizome is the stem like structure that the leaves and roots grow from. All my anubias are in the substrate.
