Default Yellow lily pads

Isn't nitrogen, nitrate, and nitrite the things we spend so much money and
effort in trying to remove from the water?

I am soooooooo confused!

Yellowing leaves (entire leaf) indicate nitrogen deficiency when it
occurs in new leaves. Streaked or mottled yellowing (in between
veins) indicates iron and/or manganese deficiencies. Add nitrogen to
the substrate (try to avoid using products with phosphorus) for the
former, lower pH for the latter.
