Care Tips: Microsorum pteropus Narrow Mini is a compact and slow-growing variant of the Java Fern, characterized by its narrow and delicate leaves. It thrives in low to medium lighting, making it suitable for low-tech aquariums. Like other Java Fern varieties, it should be attached to hard surfaces like driftwood or rocks, with the rhizome kept above the substrate to prevent rot. It is an excellent choice for smaller aquariums or as a foreground plant in larger tanks. Minimal maintenance is needed, and it is very adaptable to various water conditions. Regular trimming helps keep the plant looking tidy and healthy.
