Do I leave it in the pot or remove it?** A: The instructions above clearly state to remove it from the pot and peel the wool of the roots, and rinse before placing in the substrate in your tank. ## Frequently Bought Together - SubstrateSource Java Fern Live Aquarium Plants - Potted Freshwater Plant for Fish Tanks - Beginner Friendly, Low Light (Java Fern, 1 Pot) - SubstrateSource Anubias Live Aquarium Plants - Potted Freshwater Plant for Fish Tanks, Terrariums - Beginner Friendly Low Light (Nana, 1 Pot) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.kw/products/423751662-substratesource-live-plants-microsorum-pteropus-narrow-microsorum-pteropus-low-to](https://www.desertcart.com.kw/products/423751662-substratesource-live-plants-microsorum-pteropus-narrow-microsorum-pteropus-low-to) --- *Product available on Desertcart Kuwait* *Store origin: KW* *Last updated: 2026-10-04*
