The most popular fern specie in aquatics is probably Microsorum pteropus. The Asian fern is widespread and is considered very variable with different growth sizes and leaf shapes. As a typical rhizome plant, root timber or stone material is optimal for it as substrate. Our Microsorum covered mangrove roots are best suited for the beginners in aquaristics: Easy to handle when setting up the aquarium, as well as having a strong, natural effect. Microsorum is undemanding in care and grows well even in the shadiest areas.
