Uh Oh. In this case I think you can suspect the Kribensis. I have direct
proof that Kribensis bite pieces out of young Anubias leaves as I have seen
mine do it. I went on holiday for a week (so the fish weren't fed) and when
I returned all the new Anubius leaves were just stalks. I forgot to put a
piece of cucumber in there which I think might prevent this.
