Java fern is a great low-light plant that is extremely hardy. A Java Fern plant is an aquatic fern that grows very well under low light. The Java Fern plant can be easily attached to driftwood or rocks. The large green leaves look best attached to driftwood and growing up or down a branch. Oftentimes, we will find Java fern growing out of our sponge filters due to tiny plantlets breaking away from the mother. To propagate a Java Fern plant, cut the rhizome, horizontal shoots, or plantlets growing from the underside of leaves.
Java fern plant is extremely hardy and can survive in even hard water. Aquatic ferns are generally a great plant for beginners. A Java Fern plant doesn't require special lighting or CO2, making it an easy and attractive addition to your aquascape. Java fern will accept most water parameters and thrive in stable conditions.

These plants weren’t what I was expecting at all. I ordered 4 plants. They were all chewed up and didn’t look great. They had duckweed on them which I don’t want in my tanks. I reached out to support as I was also missing an item from this order. I was offered a full refund on the missing item and partial refund for the terrible plants. The refund was for 2.38 out of a $32 plant order where I don’t find that acceptable but I will just never order from here again.
I was incredibly happy with my order. I forgot they ship on certain days, so it took me 5 or so days before I got my stuff. Everything came in great condition and the packaging was super professional! However, the enormous java fern I got gave me some trouble with where to plant him, but it looks great. I will 100% order from this site again in the future and the Swedish Fish included in the package was the cherry-on-top of it all!
Several plants in these images were already in the tank.
The item was nicely packaged and the fern seems very healthy. No personalized “Thank you so much for your purchase, it’s people like you who make this all possible!”, but an extra free plant was also received which appears just as healthy. I am very pleased.
Java Fern
Everything arrived alive! Great stock of fish, snails, and shrimp. Provided great resources on acclimation and other information as well!
Wow, the Java fern mat was one beautiful collection of plants, and super-healthy. Braziilian Pennywort was less than ideal, but overall happy.
All 4 plants arrived quickly and healthy. Not much trimming of dead/dying leaves needed. Beautiful rich green color. Love them!
I am new to the hobby. The Java Ferns I ordered are my first. They are healthy and pretty. I look forward to seeing them grow.
Great Java fern mat. A little brown, but nice overall
Wonderful service!
Flip Aquatics is an awesome company. They really came through in every area i needed as a new tank owner. Will continue to purchase from them <3
Great shape
Java fern was very small and had a lot of brown on it. It was disappointing
The plant arrived healthy & vibrant. And then I put it in the turtle tank. It’s still hanging on for dear life, though the turtle delights in tearing pieces off periodically. Lol!
Flip Aquatics is the only place I buy plants. They arrive hand packed and in great condition. I’d recommend to any beginning or expert aquarium goer.
Java Fern came packed well and looked healthy. Went right into my son’s tank. It was at least 6 inches. Another place for his fish to hide.
Quick shipping. Great packaging. One of the plants was a little spotty but still healthy. Almost all the leaves have plantlets which is a bonus in my opinion. Unfortunately they came with snails too. Overall satisfied.
I received the Java Fern I ordered in perfect health with no thin spots or folding of the leaves at all. When planting it I discovered a baby too. :) How awesome is that! Having been disapointed with aquarium plants purchased online and elsewhere, I will definitely be ordering any and all of my aquarium needs from this business from now on. Flip Aquatics can be trusted to constantly provide best shipping, expert packaging, excellent communication and high quality live or dry products.
Falling in love with them.
Excellent customer service! My Pea Puffer is healthy, plump and a little cutie. And my Java Ferns are large and beautiful. Everything was shipped quickly and arrived well packaged, safe and sound…THANK YOU!!
I got this plant a few days ago along with some shrimp and moss. They were in tact and green when I got them, and they are still healthy and even growing some roots for new plants!
No complaints, I received a fairly large fern in good shape. No damaged leaves, no brown spots, rhizome was not damaged, there wasn't even a speck of algae on it. Definitely will pick up more once i set up another tank.
Came in healthy. Was really pleased
Java Fern
Great products and quality as always.
Looks great and FAST shipping. Exactly what I wanted!
Wasn’t impressed with anything I ordered from this site … the plants have seen better days
