    True

    Explanation:

    Facultative anaerobes are bacteria who used to grow in the aerobic condition but when oxygen becomes deficient they can switch to anaerobic mode and obtain energy through fermentation. So facultative anaerobe normally lives in aerobic condition but can survive in anaerobic conditions too.

    So as facultative anaerobes normally grows in aerobic condition they grow well in incubator shelf but in anaerobic condition like anaerobic jar or in a candle jar they will show moderate growth because it is not the ideal condition for them to grow. Therefore the statement is true.
