🧪 Water Test: Check your aquarium’s pH, temperature, and hardness to ensure compatibility with the Echinodorus plant's requirements.

💦 Quarantine Option: If possible, place the plant in a separate tank for a few days to monitor for pests, snails, or algae.

🪴 Proper Planting: Bury the roots in a nutrient-rich substrate, ensuring the crown remains above the substrate to prevent rot.

💡 Gradual Light Exposure: Start with moderate lighting and gradually increase to prevent shock or algae growth.
