For me I put them in my sump where there are little light and slow flow. Ensure the stick is standing and the tip is not submerge. In a week or 2 you would see the root to grow and sign of leaf coming out.

i think if you got new seed, best if plant separately in a container,...half sea/half rain water -brackish water... put out in the sun, ( not too visible as dengue.alert!...NEA may think you breeding mozzies..!) let the seedling grow roots/ leaves...and then introduce to your refugium. Mangroves need lots of sunlight. Dose magnesium as they take that from your system.
