Anubias frazeri is used as a decorative, low-maintenance aquatic plant for aquariums, paludariums, and terrariums due to its hardy, broad leaves and ability to grow in low light. Its sturdy structure provides a habitat for fish and shrimp, a surface for fish to lay eggs, and a home for beneficial bacteria. The plant also helps with oxygenation and can aid in algae control by shading the substrate.
