I have an anubias nana, and it has quite the rhizome on it. Roots growing along the entire length. Thing is, I want another anubias nana, so I am wondering, can I cut the rhizome in two, and grow both? Or, will it kill the plant?

Yup,use a sharp knife and cut it in 2.Try to have at least 1 inch pieces.

yeah you can cut it. Did the same to my nana and the cut part grows like a weed now.

I'm almost tempted to cut the larger part again to see if they'll grow just as well as the cut section now.
