When I discovered this plant floating around one in of my diserted tanks (with no lighting in)... it was completelely black..... I subsequently placed it in my Guppy tank, and within a week.... I've got some green growth on it.... it looks like a combo Java and Sprite..... "hand like" extensions at the ends of all the leaves.... What is it??..... I like it.... The flat(ish) plant in the centre foreground....

Ha!!!.... South Africa 2 to 18 against the rest of the world..... I posted the same question on a South African Forum,.... and the second view I had came up with the reply.... "Microsorium Pteropus Windelov".... (here, I had 18 views and no reply)....

I googled that name, and it fits to a T.... it is what I have... Wow!... cannot recall buying it, so possibly... (I dunno).... ordinary Java fern can convert to that???.... I've only just bought normal Javas. It is a beautifull plant though.....
