I have hornswort and frill in a 15 gal tank. Both plants just sit there,
they grew a lot at first, and then slowed down and now they are just

sitting
and slowly turning yellow. Is this part of their normal life cycle? Is

there
anything I can do that won't kill my neons that would help the plants to
grow?



Sounds like a fertilizer issue. My HW started to yellow about 3 weeks after
I brought it in from the pond. Now that I'm dosing with PMDD (Poor Mans
Dosing Drops), it has really perked up. I may have to thin it out soon,
before it takes over the basement. Although it's more of a lime green
colour than the dark green that it was in the pond.
