Maybe you want to share the conditions of your tank before we can advise you.

Does your java fern turn "blackish" or really dark brown.

Cos that's what's happening to mine also.
However, I do not spot any holes on them.

I thot they were doing well at first, cos can see some growth & the rest of my other plants are like overgrowing all over the place.

My temp is a bit on the high side at 29.

Er... what other info is needed for my more experienced brudders here to help?

Maybe lacking in potassium.

Temp also plays an impt part in moss and ferns.
