Java Ferns



     I obtained a Java fern (Microsorum pteropus) and attached it to a 
     piece of driftwood with a rubber band about 3 (almost 4) weeks ago.  
     So far it is not doing anything...not dying, certainly not growing or 
     producing new leaves.  Anyone have experience with this plant?  Do 
     they take a long time to acclimate?  Once acclimated, how fast can 
     they be expected to grow under good conditions (light, CO2, etc)
