JAVA FERN  DESCRIPTION

 Microsorum pteropus, commonly known as Java fern after the Indonesian island of Java, can be found in Malaysia, Thailand, Northeast India and some regions of China. It is a highly variable plant with several different geographic varieties that vary in leaf size and shape. Found in its natural habitat growing attached to roots and rocks, it can grow in both fully and partially submerged environments. The plant can propagate through small adventitious plants formed on older leaves, which attach themselves to hard substrates. Java fern is one of the most popular plants in the aquarium hobby, due to its aesthetic appeal and ease of care. Several cultivars of Java fern exist, including the "narrow leaf", "needle leaf", "Windelov", "trident", and "lance leaf" variants. Cultivation in the aquarium is usually performed by tying or gluing the rhizome to rock or driftwood, instead of planting it directly into the substrate.

It can be cultivated in tap water, dim or bright light, with or without gravel. It is more snail resistant and grows better with higher fish loads. This is a very good plant to use on tanks with difficult fish like cichlids. Just like anubias it is very hardy and resist a lot of a abuse from fish. You will receive a stem with 2 leafs.

DEAD ON ARRIVAL, NOT AS DESCRIBED ITEMS OR DAMAGED PLANTS OR BOXES:  Plants tend to suffer when on shipping. It is normal for them to lose some leaves, get a lighter or darker color or even to smell funny and look mushy. Remember that the plants have spent 3 days inside a box with no water sunlight or proper air. They will recover their normal color and grow once on your tank. IF YOU RECEIVE EXTREMELY DAMAGED PLANTS, FROZEN PLANTS OR A BOX THAT HAS BEEN BROKEN OR DAMAGE IN ANY WAY PLEASE TAKE PICTURES.

After the delivery of the box you have 48 hours to send a picture of the dead plants. I will refund or replace the damaged plants only when pictures are provided. This is done todiscourage fraud and scam artists. If after 48 hours there are not pictures of dead or not as described plants I will consider they arrived in good order.

FEEDBACK AND RATINGS: I try to do my best. If you encounter any problems always contact me before deciding to leave negative or neutral feedback. I can solve any problem to the buyers satisfaction but you should contact and let me know what is happening. 

Please remember that as a buyer you are required to know what plants are legal to keep on your state. You should know this before placing any order. It is the sole responsibility of the costumer to know the local regulations on lie aquarium plants on his state, country, municipality etc  

Tho we do our best to keep snails and other pets away from the plants and it is very rare for you to encounter any of those our plants  the plants are not guarantee to be snail or pest free. There is a small possibility they contain algae, snails, worms and other invertebrates. Plants are grown in an aquatic nursery.  There might be traces of the substrate they were grown in:  dirt, mud, gravel etc. Plants might smell due to being in transit for several days.   Stem plants are ship as cuttings without roots since this is the correct method of propagation. We only guarantee dead on arrival plants. We cant guarantee success with any live plants since we are not in control of the environment the plants will be place on,     
Most orders are ship First class on a mailer bag or envelope inside a Ziploc bag in a paper towel to keep them moist. After being in the mail for several days plants might smell, have some form of discolorations (look yellow or brown) and drop some leafs due to the stress of shipping. All this is normal due to the fact the plants have been in the mail.
