Planting Tips

Attach Windelov Java Fern to aquarium rocks or driftwood using aquarium-safe glue or thread. Keep the rhizome uncovered because burying it in substrate can cause rotting.

This hardy plant grows well in low-tech aquariums without injected CO₂. Its decorative leaf tips look particularly attractive when attached to driftwood or arranged among rocks. Avoid excessively strong lighting, which can encourage algae growth on its slow-growing leaves.
