Growing Java Fern in Low light?

[baylee767]

I don't have a light on my tank since it's a kritter keeper, but I heard that you can raise Java Fern in low light. The only light comes from when I leave my lamp on and some light (not much) getting in throgh the windows. Can I add Java fern to my tank or would that be a problem? Also, what else would be a problem? I have a filter and a 2.5 gallon tank with low lighting, 1 Betta, and some silk plants. I can get rid of the silk plants if necessary.

Java fern will grow. but so slow that you wont even notice it. it def wont die if thats what your wondering

Thanks I don't really care about how it grows cause less growing = less maintanance. At my LFS they sell them already pretty large, so that means good news for Neon since he gets a live plant (and for me because it looks cool XD)!

BTW Yes that's what I was wondering... I guess I worded the title wrong then..

Mine grows well in low light, it even sprouted some babies! <3

If you can kill this stuff, I'd be amazed :P
