Microsorum pteropus is a water fern from Asia, 15-30 cm tall, which should be grown on a root or stone, attached with fishing line until it has gained a hold. If it is planted in the bottom, do not cover the rhizome because it will rot. Easy to propagate by splitting the horizontal rhizome. A hardy plant which grows in all conditions. The black spots under the leaves are sporangia (reproductive organs), not signs of disease as many believe.
Type: Rhizomatous
Origin: Asia
Growth rate: Slow
Height: 15 - 30+
Light demand: Low
CO2 : Low

Pretty happy with the java fern i got, nice big green leaves and thriving in my tank.
Sadly I was quite disappointed. I am a first time customer and the broad Leaf Java fern i ordered and received had only a couple leaves. I emailed the fish room of my concerns with a photo and was told that's generally how they come at this time of year.
Received plants earlier than expected which was appreciated.. But plants were in very Poor condition and Quality... Most of the leaves were already turning black and it's not the black from the plant reproducing. Within 10 days the black spread and spread.. I had to spend more money to buy fertiliser to save my plants.. Not a good first experience buying from you considering it cost me $50 to get the plant to me, only to have it dying.
Great plant, excellent service and advice as always.
