I must say.....that looks stikingly similar to the two different "microsorum" in this thread:

http://www.aquaticplantcentral.com/f...-narrow-4.html

There appear to be some differences so it is deffinately possible they are different plants......even the two ***misnomer......sorry Aaron***** "narrowleaf tropicas" look completely different from the linked thread.

Verry nice plant,

Did you end up obtaining this plant?

Looks emersed. Any chance it will survive submersed?

It's still doing fantastic for me submersed as well. Does anyone have an ID for it? If not, I'd like to suggest Microsorum sp. 'Fingers' because the structure looks a lot like a hand with fingers coming off it.

It truly is a great plant though, and grows as quickly as regular Java Fern in good light/CO2

How about Microsorum sp. 'Trident'

The shape looks just like a trident-the weapon
