Aquarium Advice FINatic
I've two large java fern in my mbuna cichlid tank (they don't eat them before you ask ), and they appear to have developed 'fernlets' or mini-versions along the leaves, which is very confusing! They look like long wispy tendrils, and appear not long after black spots on the leaves. I read something about rhizomes (?) and fernlets, but not enough to know what to do about them. I personally think they look pretty hideous, but will it damage the original plant if I try to remove them and how do I go about that? Or, am I better off leaving them as is? They've been developing now for about a month.
