    Agree with @Reedfish , dont think its a Maidenhair but just looking at the leaves in those photos, it does remind you a lot of a Rabbit Foot Fern

    No, not RFF (Davallia). It has thick, furry rhizomes.

    Could be spores, but I do not have any other ferns around.

    Maybe these help?

    I love a good mystery :)

    @f-fish as far as I remember the shelf these and your other emersed plants grow on is all enclosed with a lid together with the aquarium? Ie very high humidity?

    Yes it does, the emerged plants may not be bolbitis.
    But the submerged ones are definitely bolbitis.

    Agree .. the bolbitis is way easier to grow than say java fern. Luck13 is an open tank .. shelf is just the the way it is with a high back glass side. So normal fish room humidity - that is way higher than what is should be ;-)

    Could you perhaps move one of them to under the water to see what it does?
