Or put root tabs in the pot ...but it looks like it was grown immersed so means now that it's in the water it will melt away all old leave and grow new submerssed leaves which will be wider but not as long

He just sent me pics kinda looks like that . So it goes through a transition once its submerged ? He says some turning brown and some tips look like they drying up lol idk what that means its under water after all

And yes all plants no matter what kind if grown immersed (out of water) once in water will take a few weeks sometimes to transition into submerged state...some plants will look the same as far as leaf structure or shape some will change totally different..but like I said this will need some kind of nutrients weather it be root tabs or from a nutrient rich soil

That leaf is melting which is totally normal while transitioning

Not a prob if he has any other questions just ask me...I'm not an expert by any means but I have kept a freshwater planted tank for years from easy plants to high tech plants that require dosing and co2
