Planting:

1. Prepare your aquarium: Ensure your tank is clean and cycled with stable water parameters. Use a nutrient-rich aquarium substrate suitable for plant growth.
2. Spread the seeds: Evenly distribute the seeds over the moistened substrate. Gently press them into the substrate without burying them deeply.
3. Maintain low water flow: Avoid strong currents that can dislodge the seeds. You can use airline tubing with a diffuser to create a gentle mist over the seeds.
4. Provide adequate lighting: Use low to moderate lighting for the first few weeks. Gradually increase the intensity as the grass grows.
5. Be patient: Germination can take 7-14 days. Maintain consistent water parameters and mist the surface regularly to prevent the seeds from drying out.
