Any suggestion for flowering aquatic plants that are not too demanding?

Anubias spp. will flower underwater if given moderate to bright light
and CO2.

It'll flower under low light without carbon dioxide, too.

Not much of a flower though:

Of course it's s till more impressive than a vallisneria flower:

But it's about as much as you get from submersed plants. Crypts will
also flower, but they're not much to look at when they do:

Water lilies are the plants that make the only decent flowers but
of course they aren't really submersed... but the smaller ones will
flower in aquaria with sufficient lighting and nutrients.
