Something is eating it. My money is on the shrimp. I couldn’t grow it in my tank as it was just eaten straight away.

Hi all,

hard water

Something is eating it.

I think you have some <"iron (Fe) availability issues"> and also that @simon_the_plant_nerd is right.

Ah ok and yeah it does look nibbled, never had it nibbled before in another setup with shrimp though, goddam shrimp maybe I’ll feed them as I haven't bothered so far

Agree with the comments here. From your photo's it looks like the new leaves in the centre of the plant are pale /white, if so then this highly likely an iron issue. Can you confirm if this is the case?
I find unhealthy plants are then eaten by your shrimp!! Healthy ones are left alone.
