Aggression, predation or incompatibility with existing tank mates
Improper care after pickup

Plants are provided in good condition at the time of pickup. Some melting, leaf loss or changes in appearance can occur while plants adjust to new water parameters and aquarium conditions. This normal adjustment is not covered.
