Depending on the type of fern reduce the light. Our Peacock Fern loves shade and hates any sort of direct light.

I would take out and examine roots. If you find rot, trim leaving only healthy roots. For soil your looks really dark. Switch to a 50/50 potting soil to perlite mix.

Do not water right away if you find rot. Skip till next watering. Instead lightly mist daily.

It looks like my cotton candy fern. I bought two of them 3 weeks ago. One is doing well. The second one is going under. The left one and the one in the middle is the same plant 3 weeks apart. I thought the one doing poorly had too much water or the soil mix dried slower than the other plant bought at the same time. So, I reduced the amount of water I gave it. It just died slower. I moved it to get more indirect light by putting it outside in a covered area. It has stabilized.

You just have to try a few things and see how the plant responds. Let it dry out more between watering. Give it more indirect light. Good luck. 🍀🪴

That’s some kind of club moss. They like humidity, but need good air movement to not get moldy. Walking the line with these can be tricky. They really don’t recover once stressed, in my experience
