Floating plants?

[BriannaL]

I have a 25 gallon planted tank, I’m looking for recommendations for some pretty floating plants. Is there any kind that you can put in an indoor tank that flowers? I already have some hornwort.

Don't get any Duckweed, and if you get some on plants with it, rinse well and get it all off and then keep removing any you might see!!

I think you can float anacharis.

 

[Autumnsky]

Oh yes, and it has flowers.

Thank you all so much!

Hello Bri...

Hornwort, Water sprite, Pennywort and Banana plant are all good floaters. The Banana works best if you attach it to a piece of floating driftwood with a length of similar colored sewing thread.
