Silver Dollar "Gulp, wasn't me"... said with a stem hanging out of his mouth... "must have been that new pleco", I've seen him eating that hair algae on the drift wood...

my flowering anubias nana, got half munched recently...

The Silver Dollar did that . That cracks me up because I had a friend in grade school that had plants in his aquarium long before any of the rest of us and his Silver Dollars ate them up and he was mad .
 
LOL! That made me remember my "veggie" clown loach that guarded anubias flowers. There was somethng wrong with it I never figured out. A strange but eventually tragic fish.

At least you know the culprit. Looks like it ate more than just a flower :D
 
I began feeding lettuce and spinach, and those disappear usually within a day... I keep some giant Duckweed around here for some of the vegi eaters I've added that 3 times now, and that seems to be disappearing, so he must be eating that, faster than it's been reproducing in that tank, but that's OK, as it requires frequent thinning out in my shrimp tanks... hopefully that takes the pressure off the nana, and maybe it'll come back and flower again???
