some of these plants i got close to 2 weeks ago & some about couple days ago & they just won’t last. the leaves end up going discoloured, soft, or just fall off in general.
i don’t get what im doing wrong?
they’re planted in sand & i use seachem flourish about twice a week to help, but i still struggle to keep them healthy.
idk if i should get root tabs? they’re $30 where im from which is a bit of a stretch if i dont actually need them, but i literally dont know why they die or what else to do.
any suggestions?

What lights do you have? How long are they on daily?
Do you know your GH and KH?
Flourish is a weak fertilizer imo, and you don’t necessarily need root tabs.
Would help if we knew what plants they are. I can only make out the bacopa stems, don’t know what the other is (Hygrophila maybe?)
Your light is too weak for pretty much any plant except for anubias and the likes. Plants also have the tendency to “melt” the first couple of weeks as they adjust to the newer environment.
