Filbert tears up plastic plants but so far is leaving the anubius alone.

Anubias do seem to not be tasty.

Well established Crinums may also be ignored if they are not "in the way".

LOL I don't think anything eats anubis....even my cichlids would not touch it.

To the OP, my lil guy leaves his plants alone except for the lilly pads from my RTL.
