Java Moss is really easy to grow, the best way to make it grow faster is to add CO2 to your tank here’s a link on how to make a cheap DIY CO2

I wouldn’t mess with the pH an unstable pH is extremely stressful for your fish
I would have at least 2-3 WPG(watts per gallon) and leave it on for at least 8 hours a day right now you have a 12 gallon tank and 11 watts so that’s only 11/12 WPG
