Tropical water lilies

[annka5]

Is it feasible to add a tropical water lily to a large enough tank? I appreciate the water level would have to be below the level of the hood, so you could see the flowers.

Would this require a massive huge tank though?

Am looking at getting a bigger tank and fancied the idea of adding a water lily, so wanted to know if it was feasible.

You could do it in a 65 gallon with a very intense light source like a 250w MH pendant lamp. You just have to remember to fertilize the substrate often.
