I am about to purchase a large quantity of java fern off of aquabid and seeing as how I have no experience with the plant I am wondering if there are any useful tips anybody may have for me?

I am particularly curious as to it's growth rate as well as the amount of time needed to allow it to root into a piece of driftwood or rock.

Don't bury the rhizome and leave it be.

I like tieing mine to driftwood and let it do its thing from there. I have noticed that with high light and good ferts/co2 it grows pretty fast.

nice because that is exactly what I plan on doing with mine!
