Prepping for Aquarium Placement:

• Before placing potted aquarium plants into your tank, it's crucial to remove them from their pots and thoroughly rinse off the soil or substrate they may be potted in. Gently shake or rinse the roots to remove excess debris without damaging them. Trim any damaged or overly long roots to encourage healthy growth. If the plant is held together by a foam or mesh material, be sure to remove it carefully to prevent it from decomposing in the aquarium.
• When planting in the main aquarium, consider the specific needs of each plant species regarding light, substrate, and water conditions. Secure the plants in the substrate or attach them to decorations using aquarium-safe methods like plant weights or tie them to rocks or driftwood. Monitor the plants closely after planting to ensure they adapt well to their new surroundings.
• You can often split potted plants into 2 or 3 individual plants to spread around your aquascape.

Care Tips for Microsorum Java Fern Narrow Leaf:

• Do Not Bury the Rhizome: Java Fern should be attached to rocks or driftwood instead of being planted in the substrate, as burying the rhizome may cause it to rot.
• Low to Medium Light Preferred: Too much direct light can lead to algae growth on its leaves. Keep it in shaded areas or provide moderate lighting for best results.
• Minimal Fertilisation Needed: It absorbs nutrients from the water column, so occasional liquid fertilization is beneficial but not required.
