Microsorum sp. 'India'

Microsorum sp. 'India'

€8.90

Microsorum sp. 'India' is a compact and uniquely textured aquatic fern from India. As one of the smaller species in this group, it is ideal for nano aquariums. Like other Microsorum species, it is an epiphyte, meaning it naturally grows attached to rocks, driftwood, or other hardscape elements rather than being planted in the substrate. One of its most distinctive features is its bullate leaves, which have a beautifully textured, rippled surface. These deep green, lanceolate leaves give the plant a unique appearance, adding depth and contrast to an aquascape. This fern is slow-growing and thrives in a wide range of conditions, making it an excellent choice for both low-tech and high-tech aquariums. It prefers moderate to low lighting and benefits from a stable nutrient supply. While CO₂ injection is not essential, it can enhance growth and coloration. To prevent rot, the rhizome should never be buried in the substrate but instead secured to hardscape elements. With its compact size, unique leaf texture, and adaptability, Microsorum sp. 'India' is a fantastic choice for aquascapers looking to add visual interest and structure to their tank, especially in smaller setups.

Price per: plant with 5-6 leaves on the rhizome.
