It should grow great....

Actualy, no it wont... Its not an aquatic plant... Sorry

AFAIK, grass seed isn't aquatic

But, it wouldn't hurt to try a bit, would it? Would be interesting to see how it does.

The grass will sprout, die and foul your water.

Hey - thats very nearly what is does in my garden, except the missing bit about feeding the birds :smile:

Thinking about that, a lot of grass seed is treated to make it unpalatable for birds, do not know what the chemical they use would do in a tank!

I have seen creeping bentgrass grow with roots submerged, but not fully submerged. I have some growing on the edge of my pond, people try to walk on it and get there feet wet.
