You will go bananas for the banana plant. Super easy plant to grow in any tank with any kind of light. It will send up long stems with a leaf to the waters surface like a lilly plant. You can keep it growing more compact by trimming off leaves that reach the surface. DO NOT bury the whole bottom of the plant. This will cause it to die. Just push the very bottom in the substrate to make it stay and that's it. I haven't figured out propagation on this particular plant.

I recommend only propagating after it has 3 leaves on both sides.
