Propagating Anubias

[Cinnebuns]

I'm working on propagating my anubias nana petite and anubias nana golden for my "tree" in the middle of my tank. Most of them it was pretty straight forward where I wanted to make the cut. This one has me all kinds of confused. Ideas?

id take a shot at it as close to the middle as you can get. i dont think its overly critical.

The problem is its not in a line like the others. It's in one tangled mass

I try to leave 3+ leaves on each bunch.  This end is the direction of growth and the "healthiest" plant. You will probably get some Y's on the parts you cut. It does tend to happen for some varieties and that's why you get the weird shapes like you're dealing with.  When I propogate mine, I try to get a good amount on either cut, but what I tend to start with is figuring out direction, branches, and checking the oldest part of the rhizome for unhealthy spots.  That tends to be where you get the rot and sometimes removing that section really helps.
