X3 Java Fern (Microsorum Pteropus) live aquarium Plant

Java Fern (Microsorum Pteropus) is one of the most versatile plants in the aquarium hobby and the most forgiving when it comes to beginner’s mistakes. Among our customers and certainly ourselves at Castle Dawn Aquatics it is one of the most commonly used plants in blackwater biotopes due to its love of low light and its remarkable adaptability to acidic water. The plant's versatility knows no limits but it does not mean it is indestructible and will quickly tell you when it's not happy (See common problems)
