Matthew does stuff Posted June 30, 2023 Share Posted June 30, 2023 I recently got this 6.8 gallon petco rimless tank used and I’m wondering what plants these are. Any help would be greatly Appreciated! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fish Folk Posted June 30, 2023 Share Posted June 30, 2023 Java Fern. Microsorum pteropus. Very easy rhizome aquarium plant. Do not bury the stalky-rhizome that it grows from underneath the substrate. Just gently let wedge it between hardscape, nudge it in a crevice, etc. Here's a helpful write up on the plant from ACO blog. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthew does stuff Posted June 30, 2023 Author Share Posted June 30, 2023 Thank you! I thought it was Java fern but wanted to make sure. I hope these grow nicely! Thanks for your feedback! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nabokovfan87 Posted June 30, 2023 Share Posted June 30, 2023 Yeah. It looks like the above mentioned java Fern. You may have normal and a needle leaf variety. They look like it was from the big box store initially, from those plastic tubes. A lot of the time they are really dried out, so it might end up causing a lot of the little ferns to grow pretty quickly once you start the planted tank routines. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
