    How to plant moneywort?

    It's a cutting. Does it mean I only can plant root into gravel exclude stem? I need test NO3 and ph. I think NO3 should be above 20 and ph above 8.

    How to plant moneywort?

    I bought moneywort around one month ago and plant them into gravel. But now it looks rotted not only the stem under and just above gravel, also the leaves. Did I use the right way to plant them? I have 65W cp 50/50 on my 20G H tank. Any idea? Thanks in advance.
