I just noticed a flower growing from a sword plant in my fish tank
Pretty happy, so I took some pics and a video


Here's a pic of the plant:


And a close up of the flower:


And a video:


Anyone seen a flowering sword plant before?

nice one jason

 

what's your setup? do you use co2

It's a 6x2x2 tank from Aquotix
I have a 5 foot ISTA LED light on this tank. Pretty low power consumption, and it grows plants really well.
No co2 on this tank. Can't afford it
