Java Fern Microsorum - Rooted in Small Lava Rock - Live Freshwater Aquarium Plant

Java Fern (Microsorum pteropus) is a beginner-friendly live freshwater aquarium plant known for its lush green foliage and suitability for versatile placement in planted aquariums. This easy-care species grows at a slow, steady pace, requiring minimal trimming and maintenance.
As an epiphytic plant, Java Fern should be attached to rocks or driftwood rather than buried in substrate. Keep the rhizome exposed for best results and long-term health.

This listing includes one plant pre-attached to natural lava rock, small size.
