NFaustman Enthusiast Posts: 172 Kudos: 163 Votes: 78 Registered: 13-Jun-2005	Little Fish, I have 2 anubias barteri with flowers as well. This is the first time they've flowered like this...what ends up happening with these growths? Are they seed-producing? Should I harvest them out of the tank? Do your fish eat them?

LITTLE_FISH *** Little Fish *** Master of Something Posts: 7303 Kudos: 1997 Votes: 670 Registered: 20-May-2005	NFaustman, I believe to remember that submersed Anubias flowers do not produce viable seeds. What will happen is that the "blossom" will desintirate until only a core is left. The stem on which the blossom sits will stay for quite a while. I usually trim it off, close to the rhizome.

That is why I have an african cichlid tank with rocks no plants. I am good at plants on terra firma but not so much with the aqua ones. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~ My fish blow kisses at me all day long ~~~
