Plant classification

What plant is this? I previously believed it to be amazon sword, but it has a definite rhizome. Now I think it might be a big anubias nana or lanceolata. It's taken this plant over 2 years to get this big. One pic is of the plant from ways away and the other is what i believe to be the rhizome. I wouldn't have put it in the foreground if I had known it would get so big lol.

Looks like an anubias sp. to me as well, not sure which one though.

Thanks! What makes you think so?

Just looking at the rhizome formation and shapes of leaves. I have some experience with anubias and that one seems to growing in the same pattern that mine would.

That's helpful. Dare i ask if you have any tips in propagating it?

I would just use a sharp razor-blade and cut the rhizome to split the plant. If you don't like it in the front, just remove the entire plant, slice it into two or more pieces, and place them in more aesthetically pleasing locations.
