Default Re: How To Keep Ferns?

My java fern seems to struggle/just hang on while other plants thrive. I get the impression that java fern does not always compete that well with other more vigorous plants. For example since I stripped out most of my vallis (which grew like a beast) all sorts of other plants have started to thrive such as sword plants and rotala rotundifolia (and to a small extent java fern) while others seemed to decline such as ludwigia.

You also mention that leaves are taken over by green spot which could indicate a nutrient deficiency.
