The Microsorum pteropus or Java fern is native to Asia. Microsorum pteropus "Trident" is a narrow-leaved, smaller form of Microsorum, which, like other Microsorum, is an easy and safe plant. "Trident" is suitable for both beginners and experienced scapers and fits well in both smaller and larger aquariums.

The name "Trident" indicates that the plant's leaves are tripartite, while the leaves can vary from entire to multi-parted. It is suitable for planting on rocks or tree roots. When planted in the substrate, avoid covering the horizontal stem. New, small plants often emerge at the tips of the leaves and can be carefully removed and replanted.
