I found several anubias like plants at my local plant nursery (with similar flowing like the variety anubias species I found posted at AC). I almost purchased the plant as I thought it one of Anubias species however the seller told me that this plant need moisture but not water. Too much water it is gonna die. Are all anubias species can be grown submersed? If there are other plant species that look similar flowering as anubias. Sorry I know little about plant.

I suspect it was a spathephyllum, peace lily, the flowers are similar to anubias. People grow them in tanks or sumps with the roots in the water & leaves out the top out of the water. There are several other houeplants with that shape flower.

I google the names of the plants you mentioned - you are correct. Thanks for this. I am ending up finding any anubias species now in Cambodia. I would try Thailand or Malaysia.
