It thrives in medium lighting and a pH range of 6.0 to 7.5, making it ideal for freshwater aquariums with diverse fish species. Known for its dense foliage and natural waste absorption, it enhances water quality while adding lush greenery. Each pack includes 3-4 leaves with creeping rhizomes, perfect for midground placement and natural propagation. ## Description Java fern is a beautiful addition to the freshwater, planted aquarium. Growing around 8 inches tall, with creeping, green rhizomes, java ferns are well suited for not only planted aquariums, but also those that contain cichlids and other large south american fish. Java fern is a very popular plant in the hobby due to its impressive size, density, and its minimal care requirements. Java fern can thrive even in poorly lit aquariums, and in the right conditions it is a very aggressive grower, meaning it provides excellent waste removal from the water column. Java ferns will thrive in an aquarium with an alkalinity of 3-8 dkh and a ph of 6.0 to 7.5. They will propagate by adventitious plants on leaves & roots, and rhizome division may also be seen. Java fern looks great planted singly, or in groups if there is enough room in the aquarium.
