My guess too. You're lucky to have it flower. The closest to flowering I've had is 2 of my anubias almost flowering (1 is still trying).
Details! First, please be super-cool and find out what the kelvin rating of the bulbs you're using is. You can look on the bulbs themelsves, it's often printed there. If not, they may have some identification("GE plantgro" or something), which you can look up online.
Second, how many watts per gallon?
Third, what temperature is the tank kept at? Third-point-five; Does the temperature change much throughout the day?
Fourth; What's your photoperiod?(How many hours are the lights on/off each day)
Those are the things that will determine whether or not a plant flowers. Some plants flower based on a change in light schedule; The later months of summer and early fall months give the plants less usable daylight and more darkness. Some plants use the weather; Strawberries rely on temperature and light schedule.
The light colour shouldn't *induce* flowering, but having more red light may produce more spectacular buds.
