Using maidenhair fern.

[Sarpijk]

Ηι,

I got me some maidenhair fern for my tank. I had no idea about this plant but seeing it in one of Alastair's tanks in its full glory made me want it so much!

What is the best way to plant it in the tank? Does it prefer to have its roots in a riparium planter like a shower caddy or should I just attach it to a piece of driftwood with its roots submersed?

Cheers
Steve

Hi all,

The crown needs to be above the water level, after that I don't think it matters too much. Have a look at: <"Riparium Plant: Adiantum sp. maidenhair fern">.
