This variant of the ever-popular Java Fern has very distinctive “trident” formations on its leaves!

 

Trident Java Fern (Microsorum pteropus var. “Trident”) is a fascinating variant of the classic Java Fern.  This variant is distinctive for its narrow leaves that form trident-like formations instead of the straighter, broader leaves of the standard Java Fern.  

Care for this variant is identical to the classic Java Fern, so it should be attached to aquarium décor.  It requires only low to moderate lighting and can thrive in a variety of water parameters, including lightly brackish conditions.  With quality care, the Trident Java Fern will grow at a moderate rate.

In addition to its attractive appearance, Trident Java Fern provides a valuable refuge for aquarium animals, especially dwarf shrimp, nano fish, and fry.  Trident Java Fern can easily flourish and grow to become a major centerpiece of the planted aquarium!

Like most plants, Trident Java Fern will benefit from supplementation such as Seachem Flourish, Flourish Excel, Nitrogen and other plant supplements.  However, supplementation is not required for this plant to grow and stay healthy.

Approximate shipping size is 3-5 stems at 10-15 inches tall.

 No aquarium plant distributor/nursery/wholesaler/retailer can or will guarantee their plants to be 100% snail free. We can not guarantee our plants will be snail free.

Shipping Schedule for this service

UPS 1 Day: Monday through Thursday
 

Current Handling Time:

1-9 business days

Here at Aquatic Arts, we consider the welfare of the live animals we are shipping to be of the foremost importance. This process is much more involved than simply creating a shipping label and affixing it to a box. Depending on the order, it takes from 4 to 7 people to complete this process properly. We check the weather conditions here where they fly out of the Indianapolis UPS facility and the destination for each shipment. We start early each morning and go through a multi-step process to have the day's shipments prepared in time for the UPS pickup. The volume of orders in our system also affects the processing time. Therefore our stated handling time is 1-9 business days. 

Shipping Rate

Pricing is by size of package needed to fill entire order and distance it must travel. It will be calculated at checkout.
