When I first bought my 2 Java ferns, I noticed that they had small Java ferns attached to them. That is obviously there way of reproduction, I thought. But now, I have LOTS of them hanging off the ends of my java fern leaves. I have a Nano tank now, and am interested In maybe moving one or two into the nano, to reduce the nitrates ( even though I already have a small cryptocoryne in there )And give it a more planted look. I like planting my tanks. I know these would get too big, but I would take them out when they get too large, and put them in my 20 gallon. Is there any way I can detach the baby java ferns from the large ones without cutting it off? Or will they come off on there own? Is this a bad idea? Will it hurt the plant?
Thanks!
Thanks!
