Re: [tropical fish club] Re: I have what might be an invasive species growing out from my Java Ferns.

 

Erika, those are new java fern shoots.  That is how java fern reproduces.  The new growth and roots can occur on any part of the leaves of a healthy java fern, and as they grow they tend to dislodge themselves/separate from the main plant either by weighting it down to the substrate or the leaf it sprouts from will snap off where the new, heavier growth occurs.

There is nothing invasive to worry about.

Hello fellow Water Keepers.

I have a problem or at least I am not sure if it is a problem. I noticed that I have some shoots sprouting from my Java Ferns roots and all.

They are a brighter green then that of the Java Ferns. I am afraid that these new shoots might transfer over to the new plant(Bolbitis)that I just bought. Silly me I didn't think about that at the time I bought it.This is what the invasive plant looks like.
