What do you have in mind? To grow it in the tank or to offer as a snack? To grow, mondo grass could work well. As for a snack, I imagine all organic grasses will be fine.

Some of the hardware stores should still be selling seeds this time of year. Look for wheat, millet, cat grass, rye, etc. You should also be able to find it organic if you prefer. Under $2 a packet.

Thanks! I'll be growing it in my tank. Is millet grass seed safe for hermit crabs to eat?
