I’ve had this plant in my 55-gallon tank for three months. It’s grown beautifully even without extra lighting. The lacy leaves add a nice texture to the water. My Goldfish don’t bother it at all. Easy to care for and very hardy.
Joanne Langdon –
The plant arrived healthy and has spread well in my low-light tank. I attached it to a piece of driftwood and it’s been thriving. It looks more natural than other Java Fern varieties I’ve tried.
Edward Bell –
Perfect for beginners. I didn’t have to adjust the lighting or water parameters. The leaves grow slowly but steadily. It’s a great addition to a community tank with fish that like to swim around.
