The Benefit of Plants

EASY TO PLANT–simply throw it into your water. Really – even if you just drop it in, it’ll start growing. WindelovJava Fern will thrive while floating, or the current may allow it to attach to something that its roots can hold onto.Simply take the piece of dcor you want the fern attached to and make a simple bead of glue. The only thing to watch out for is that you don’t bury the rhizome (the twig-like portion of the plant). All the roots and leaves extend out of this rhizome.A great benefit to this plant is that it does not require a substrate, making WindelovJava Fern an idea for bare bottom tanks.

NOT PICKY FOR LIGHTING–WindelovJava Fern isn’t picky about which spectrum of lighting you’re using or even the number of watts. Any range from low to medium-high light is perfect for this plant. At the very high-end range of light, you can actually burn or melt it. So resist the urge to recreate the Sahara Desert over your tank. Java Fern can live off such little light that many aquarists have forgotten it for several weeks in a bucket and it still lives!

FAST AND EASY TO REPRODUCING–Tiny Java Ferns are formed at the edge of the leaves. Once they mature they drop off and attach themselves to wherever they should land. You can also break leaves off and let them float in the aquarium. The plant even has an emergency contingency if it starts to die it immediately produces new plantlets, sometimes as many as 20 babies per leaf. This is a great method for getting ready to set up a new tank or propagating it to give to a new fish friend.

FISHES LOVER-Aquarium fish love to swim through these plants. WindelovJava Ferns can create an ever-evolving jungle for them to swim in.Most fish do not like the taste of WindelovJava Fern, so even many plant-eating fish will not eat it. The leaves are also very thick and rugged. They can take a beating from a large cichlid or some goldfish who just like to play with them.

Other things to consider before placing an order:

* Check to see if your tank has enough space.
* Ensure your tank is fully cycled.
* Ensure your newlivestockis compatible tank mates for any other fish you currently have (in terms of habitat, species, requirements, temperament, and size)
* Ensure that your water parameters, habitat and temperature are suitable for the species you want to introduce.
* Do not stock your tank too quickly, or suddenly a large influx of fish can unbalance your water parameters that will affect the water quality.
* Do not feed your new fish for 24hrs. They need time to settle in and feel at home. Feeding them too quickly puts their health at risk, and it can even affect your water quality. If you have existing fish in your aquarium, feeding them before releasing the new fish is a good idea.
* Dont be alarmed if, upon arrival, your fish, shrimp or snail look pale or lethargic. This is normal behaviour while in transit, and they should return to full colour and vibrancy after settling into their new home for a few days.

Also, be aware that livestock often gets stress and lose their colours after the long travel to you, this often happened to most livestock ( shrimps, guppies, plecos, and so on, kindly make sure you have the right set up, the aquarium must be fully cycled with the ideal parameters. Fishes and shrimps will often take from 3-7 days to fully adapt to the new home. If you have any concerns with your set up kindly talk to us or check out some online tutorials before purchase.
