First flowering for me

Post by edds »

Couldn't find a better place to put this. Heard about this but never had it happen, even in high-tech planted tanks, but today I found a flower finally opened on one of my Anubias 'Coffeifolia' in my soft water tank.

Very nice, A beautiful specimen you have there!
I have personally had A. barteri and A. congenis flower in my tanks. I have similarly found that soft water seems to make them happy.
Almost all aquatic plants flower (to an extent) when in the correct conditions.

Cheers,
Sean
