I had some Java Fern and it looked gross, (a lot of brown spots) so I took it out of my tank and stuck it in a glass pitcher with some water. When I finally decided to chuck it, I removed all the babies and tied em to some lava rock. Now they're nicer looking. Does anyone else get brown spots on their Java Fern?


I ordered some Trident Java Fern. Am I going to have the same problem? Do you guys have any experience with Trident Fern? I ordered some potassium. I started dosing with liquid C02 again and the tank is coming back nicely. I have new plans for it. All low light non root plants (thank you Geophagus) and liquid C02.

Do you guys have this issue with Trident Fern?
 
I've never seen a java fern without these spots. IMO it's fine. Trident care isn't different, just give it a good light source and you'll be fine. Called a low tech plant for exactly this reason :)
