Trident Java Fern: Unique Foliage for Your Aquascape

Elevate your freshwater aquarium with the distinctive beauty of the Trident Java Fern. Its elegant, forked leaves offer unique texture, perfect for any planted tank.

Overview

The Trident Java Fern (*Microsorum pteropus ‘Trident’*) is a captivating variant of the classic Java Fern, celebrated for its finely divided, trident-shaped green leaves that create an intricate, delicate appearance. This epiphytic plant thrives when attached to driftwood or rocks, developing a robust root structure that beautifully anchors it into your aquascape. Its slow growth habit ensures minimal maintenance, allowing its striking form to be a serene focal point in your aquarium.

Care Level

Considered very easy to care for, the Trident Java Fern is an excellent choice for aquarists of all experience levels. It is remarkably hardy and adaptable, making it a reliable addition to a wide range of aquarium setups. This plant is non-demanding and generally ignored by herbivorous fish, offering peace of mind for compatibility.

Tank Essentials

The Trident Java Fern flourishes in low to moderate lighting and prefers stable water conditions. Aim for a pH range of 6.0-7.5 and temperatures between 20-28°C. Ensure good water circulation around the plant. It’s crucial *not* to bury the rhizome in substrate, as this can lead to rot; instead, gently attach it to hardscape.

Diet

This plant is not demanding regarding nutrients, deriving most from the water column. While it can survive without direct fertilisation, supplementing with a liquid aquarium plant fertiliser will promote healthier growth and more vibrant foliage.
