I was wondering if water lilies would be a good plant for a tank with 3wpg.

It would have to be a large tank, as even the smallest lily gets to a pretty good size.

I would not reccommend lilies in anything less than 100 gallons.

You could actually do water lillies in an aquarium...If you got a baby from some one who has them in a pond, and had your aquarium in full sun for at least 6 hours a day, you would get some cute little leaves but no blossoms. I start all of my baby water lillies in the top waterfalls of my pond (about 6 to 8 inches deep) then I move them down to my main pond. That way they have a chance to grow some leaves before the fish try to nibble them.
