Mini Java Fern ‘Microsorum pteropus’ Aquarium Aquatic Fish Tank Plant

Mini Java Fern is a compact dwarf variation of the well-known Java Fern. Though it belongs to the same species, this strain produces 1-3cm leaves when in optimal high tech conditions. 

New plantlets will grow via the rhizome , although damage to plant or poor conditions will encourage new buds on the leaf structure. As an epiphyte, it can be securely attached to rocks or driftwood with aquarium-safe glue they cannot be buried in substrate.

As rhizome plants, they must be securely attached to surfaces such as driftwood or rock, which can be achieved with aquarium-safe glue. These plants are able to absorb nutrients through the water column, making them ideal for soaking up nitrates produced by messy fish. However, to ensure optimal growth, it is still recommended to use a comprehensive liquid fertiliser to provide all necessary micro and macro nutrients.
