Aquatic Banana Plant

Name: Aquatic Banana Plant
Scientific Name: Nymphoides aquatica
Maximum Size: Leaves can reach 6-12 inches tall with broad, round pads that may float to the surface in mature tanks.
Favorite Things: Moderate light, nutrient-rich substrate, and stable warm water (72–82°F). The banana-shaped tubers store nutrients and should remain above the substrate — burying them may cause rot. A unique centerpiece or accent plant for aquariums and bowls.
Best Buddies: Peaceful community fish, shrimp, and snails. Excellent for betta tanks, guppies, tetras, or nano setups where its shape can be showcased.
