Y'all! I have a dang flower in one of my 20 longs. I'm shocked. This tank is running fine. Animals seems healthy but I'm not really doing anything special. This makes me feel like this tank is exactly dialed in though if this plant is so happy it wants to flower! I think it's some sort of Buce but I've bought many randoms from /r/AquaSwap.
